CANTERBURY...THE BRITISH WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS 2015
The winners of the British Wildlife Photography Awards 2015 will go on display for the first time outside of London at the Beaney in Canterbury.
More than 100 images and videos, including winning and commended entries, will be on display in the Special Exhibitions Room.
Established in 2009, the British Wildlife Photography Awards generate an incredible catalogue of exciting, imaginative and artistic images, proving beyond doubt that the country has the richest palette of life to celebrate. In its sixth year, the awards have done more than any other to raise the profile of British wildlife. (Picture : On the edge - Barrie WILLIAMS)
The awards were created to celebrate the talents of both amateur and professional photographers. There are 12 separate categories, including animal behaviour, urban wildlife and marine life, as well as two junior categories and a school award.
Chairman of Canterbury City Council’s Community Committee, Cllr Neil Baker, said: “We are delighted to be bringing this hugely popular exhibition to the Beaney, especially as we are the first stop on the national tour. The show features some magnificent images as well as video, and it will be accompanied by a special learning and engagement programme, so it is well worth a visit.” (Picture : London Starling Gang - Tamos Brangwyn)
