Australia’s most trusted rural charity has opened its annual photography competition to the public for its fifth year.
Spirit of the Bush is an Australian-wide photography competition run by Rural Aid.
Rural Aid CEO John Warlters said the competition was a great way to get a glimpse into life on the land.
“Our Spirit of the Bush competition is always very popular, attracting hundreds of entrants from across Australia,” Mr Warlters said. “The winning 12 photos are turned into a beautiful wall calendar.”
“I encourage amateurs, professionals and everyone in between to submit their photographs to the 2024 competition.”
“Spirt of the Bush is a wonderful celebration of the highs and lows of life on the land.”
Mr Warlters urged photographers to get in quickly this year. “We’ve shortened the competition window slightly this year, so if you’d like to take part, make sure you don’t dillydally. It’s our fifth year running this iconic competition, and we’d love it to be bigger than ever!” “We’ve already received some amazing high-quality images from previous entrants, but we’d love to see some new faces on board before the comp closes on 1st October,” Mr Warlters said.
Winners will be featured in Rural Aid’s 2025 wall calendar and will also receive a $250 pre-paid VISA card.
