The competition is open to everyone, with 12 categories in total, including Nature in Flight, Under Water and Nature and You, as well as 2 Budding Photographer categories for the Under 18's. The only restriction is that the photographs must be taken in Ulster. A panel of Judges will pick 12 Category Winners and a Public Vote will decide on the Overall Winner. Closing date for entries is 21st July 2014.

The Overall Winner of  the 'Nature Matters' 2014 Photography Competition will be decided by a Public Vote once the 12 Individual Category Winners have been chosen by the Judges. This prize has been kindly sponsored by Black & Lizars (retail value £300.00)

Self Pity

I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself.
