Our free photography contest recommendation of the day!
Since 1991, the Bay of Somme, internationally recognized as a major spot on the migratory routes, celebrates the return of spring and birds with the Bird and Nature Festival.

In 2016, for its 26th edition, it will be held from April 9th to 17th.
Nine days of exciting activities to watch, marvel, learn and educate!
Every year, the Bird and Nature Festival launches its 2 photo competitions: the International Wildbird Photo Competition and the Young Photographers Competition. They will result in an exhibition during the event.

This competition is an ethical contest. Pictures of domesticated, trained or captive wild animals or pets are prohibited. It is the responsability of each participant to adhere to all international laws pertaining to the location where the photo has been taken, including those regarding protected species. Participants are expected to keep in mind the well-being of the birds and their environment, and to avoid injury or distress to the birds or destruction of their habitat.
Any photo that, in the Jury’s opinion, has been achieved through unethical or harmful conduct will be excluded from the competition.

PRIZES AND AWARD CEREMONY
Prizes can not be the object of a counterpart in cash nor of whatever nature and are not transferable.
  • A Grand Prix to the overall winner awarded with a sum of €1,500.
  • A 1st Prize in each category awarded with a sum of €800.
  • A Public Prize awarded to the picture which has totalized the more votes from the visitors of the exhibition, endowed by the Festival’s partners. The visitors may choose amongst the photos from The International Wildbird Photo Competition or from The Young Photographers Competition.
2016 CATEGORIES
  • Bird portrait : The subject can be photographed in close-up or whole, single or group but the photo must transmit an emotion through the pose, look, expression… The topics should occupy most of the image.
  • Bird in landscape : The landscape must take a prominent place in the composition of the image.
  • Artistic vision of bird : The creativity of the photographer, in shooting or post processing, must transform the mundane into a contemplative and artistic interpretation and offer a new perspective on the bird.
  • Angry birds: The photo must show the aggressive behavior of a bird against one of its congeners or another species.
  • Birds of prey : This category is for photographs of diurnal or nocturnal raptors made without the use of live or dead bait.
The Jury reserves the right to change the category of an image if it seems more appropriate.
