Wild Scotland Photo Challenge 2018

Inspired by the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition, the Wild Scotland Photo Challenge was a chance to get out, explore and celebrate the flora, fauna and diverse rural and urban environments found in Scotland.

The challenge ran from Friday 19 January – Sunday 29 April 2018 and received around 480 entries, uploaded to Instagram or Twitter using the hashtag #WildScotlandChallenge and the hashtag for the current theme. Prizes included tickets to the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition, National Museums Scotland Membership, Membership of Edinburgh Zoo, tickets to the National Museum of Flight and Rural Life and some lovely gifts from our shop.

You can see all the images in the Wild Scotland gallery here and read more about the challenge in this blog post.
