Physical geography student photo competition

The physical geography photo competition runs annually. It is announced in spring and the closing date is the end of summer, giving students the summer break in which to produce an entry. The competition is run by the Physical Geography Special Interest Group, and while the theme changes every year, the ethos remains: to encourage students to explore the land around them and photograph an aspect of physical geography, explained in their caption. There are two age categories, 11-14 and 14-18, and prizes are awarded to the top entries.
