Well worth the visit. I've been to the last two, always great photography and very inspirational.

Enjoy,

The standard of the young entrants is another step up this year.

Woo! I love this exhibition and is one of my constant visits, if you will .

Any idea when this is coming to Adelaide?

It always amazes me - the quaility of the young entrants, for example the 2005 (I think) was won by a 10 year old. :shock: Great stuff!

Hi Ollie

Just to clarify, the 10 year old won the best "junior" photographer section at the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year :D

Great competition and I hope Adelaide gets to see it. Brisbane had it shown for the first time ever last year and it was brilliant!

Cheers

Yep, back in April. It was in the SA Museum. The ANZANG Nature and Landscape Photographer of the Year Exhibition was shown at the same time.

Just a bump for the Novocastrians :D

The exhibition ends this Saturday, so be quick if you haven't been already. It is well worth the visit and I hope to get back on Friday for another look.
