The third annual competition opened in March 2009 with a deadline of November 30th 2009. Uniquely among major photographic competitions, all entrants can receive professional feedback on their entries – after the judging of the competition is completed and on request. The competition is open to everyone, amateurs and professionals alike. Entries are welcome from any country in the world. There are no restrictions on the type of camera you use, or the techniques you use to produce your final image. You have to pay a fee to enter. But unlike free competitions, we provide feedback on request (after the judging), we have a huge range of cash and other prizes available to winners and to runners-up, together with the unique prize of having a photograph exhibited in our special exhibition at Kew Gardens. Being a finalist of International Garden Photographer of the Year will not only bring you a prize – it could be a life-changing event!

Deadline: 30 November 2009
