The Royal Society

The Royal Society is a self-governing Fellowship of many of the world’s most distinguished scientists drawn from all areas of science, engineering, and medicine. The Society’s fundamental purpose, as it has been since its foundation in 1660, is to recognise, promote, and support excellence in science and to encourage the development and use of science for the benefit of humanity. 

The Royal Photographic Society is pleased to announce our association with Royal Society Society Publishing for their 2024 Photography Competition.

Launched in 2015, the Royal Society Publishing Photography Competition aims to highlight the power of photography in capturing the scientific phenomena all around us and the role great images play in making science accessible to a wide audience. As part of their remit in recognising, promoting, and supporting excellence across the sciences, entries are sent and considered in the categories of Astronomy, Behaviour, Earth Science and Climatology, Ecology and Environmental Science, and Microimaging.

The overall winner will receive £1000 and category winners will receive £500. The Royal Photographic Society will also send the winners individual certificates and 1-year memberships to The Royal Photographic Society.

Closing 23^rd August 2024.
