BVA veterinary photographer competition opens
"This year, we would love to see how our members can use their passion for photography to capture the essence of our profession" - BVA president Malcolm Morley.
The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has officially opened its 2023 BVA Veterinary Photographer of the Year competition.
Veterinary professionals with a passion for photography have until 5pm on Sunday, 12 March 2023 to submit photographs in three categories. These are:
Vets at work
Capturing the day-to-day life of a veterinary surgeon and veterinary team in any capacity.
All creatures great and small
An opportunity to explore the vast diversity of the animal kingdom: domestic, agricultural and all aspects of wildlife.
Happy pets that make us smile
Reflecting the joy of a happy, contented animal.
Held annually for eight years, the competition receives hundreds of entries every year from BVA members. This year, the winners will be announced at the BVA Live congress in May 2023.
Malcolm Morley, BVA president, encouraged members to enter: “This competition, showcases the unique talents, creativity and skills of BVA members.
“This year, we would love to see how our members can use their passion for photography to capture the essence of our profession.
“This is an opportunity to show what life as a vet is really like, to capture the hard work and challenges on camera but also to demonstrate the kindness, skills and compassion of our incredible colleagues – as well as the amazing animals they care for.
“This is your chance to show off your talents. We are so excited to see the stunning entries start to pour in and look forward to announcing the winner at this year’s BVA Live event in May.”
The talented veterinary surgeons chosen as finalists will receive a free ticket to the BVA Live event, and winning photos will be eligible for £250 worth of John Lewis vouchers.
