In the true spirit of research, education and conservation, Earthwatch and our friends at Outer Edge, will be celebrating great field research imagery with Earthwatch's annual Expedition Photography Competition.

How does it work?

Earthwatch volunteers from across Australia are invited to send in their best field research snaps in digital form. You don't have to be a pro. You just have to have a keen eye for science, travel, team work or field research.

The competition closes on 01 December each year. Entries received after this date will be entered into the following year's competition. All winners will be announced in our bimonthly eNewsletter and will be notified directly.

What can you win?
