Funday Times Nature Odyssey Photographic Competition

Kids, welcome to the Funday Times/Nature Odyssey Kids photographic competition. This competition is designed for all budding nature photographers of 14 years and under to sharpen their skills in photographing various types of little animals.

The competition will run through for six months with a theme given each month on which you need to make photographs and send them to the paper. The picture size should be a minimum of 6 x 4 inches and the subject needs to be strictly related to the monthly themes given.

I am sure most of you have pets. What you need to do is to observe your pets closely. You will no doubt find many interesting aspects to photograph in your pets. Make great photos and send them to the Funday Times competition.

The judging will take place at the end of each month, and a valuable Coffee Table Book on Yala National Park will be given to the winner – autographed by the authors.

The competition will enter its grand finale in six months where the six monthly winners will compete for the Grand Prize of a Digital Camera.

Along the way, the Uncles and Aunties of Nature Odyssey will help you with your photography.
