THERE is still time to enter Marwell’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition.

This year, the competition has four categories: Native Wildlife – flora and fauna native or resident in the British Isles; Cute and Funny – mother nature at her cutest or most amusing; Marwell Wildlife residents; and Marwell Wildlife endangered – species at Marwell specifically classified by IUCN as endangered or critically endangered.

Entry costs £5 for adults and is free for juniors. You can enter twice, using up to 10 images.

Head judge for 2014 is Laura Barwick, a world-renowned wildlife and natural history photographer who has worked on programmes including BBC’s Planet Earth and Nature’s Great Events. She has twice been on the judging panel for the Inter-national Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition, and has a keen eye for fresh, innovative and inspiring imagery.

Other judges include award-winning wildlife photographer Jason Brown, and Paul Collins, picture editor of The Southern Daily Echo.

This year’s top prize is a nine- day trip through the wildlife conservation parks and reserves of Spain, worth £1,355. Other prizes include a special day at the zoo incorporating a Junior Photo-graphic Experience, annual memberships to Marwell Wild-life, near Winchester.

The deadline for entries is August 31. Competition terms and conditions can be found on the website marwell. org.uk/photocomp.
