Last chance to enter
This year we have lots of wonderful awards - £5000 for the top prize plus many other cash and other prizes. Also, any photographer who does not win a prize can ask for an expert critique of their entries.
Are you thinking of taking part for the first time?
If you're worried about anything technical then please just drop us an email to info@igpoty.com
Exhibitions in 2012
There will be a suitably stunning exhibition opening in the Nash Conservatory at Kew Gardens from 1 March 2012.
Next year we will also have IGPOTY exhibitions in Cumbria, Exeter, Ironbridge Shropshire, Winchester, Falkirk and Chelsea Physic Garden. In addition we will be going overseas to the New York Botanical Garden and the Sydney Botanic Garden, Australia.
We invite you to be part of this exciting and life-enhancing project!
Good luck!
