People have until 14 March to vote for their favourite.

The public is being invited to vote for their favourite photo in the RSPCA Young Photographer Awards 2022 competition. Voting is open from 12.30pm on Tuesday, 7 March and closes at 1pm on Tuesday, 14 March 2023.

The 14 photos on the shortlist were taken by young photographers aged 10 to 18.

RSPCA photographer and awards judge Andrew Forsyth said: “The best thing about the RSPCA Young Photographer Awards is that we're always seeing something new. The young photographers are always bringing fresh ideas and trying different things. The creativity and talent is outstanding - and it's a real joy to look through the entries every year.

“The People’s Choice award is a fantastic part of the competition because now the public have a chance to get involved and pick their favourite photo. There are some truly beautiful photos on the shortlist and we’re very excited to share them with everyone. I can’t wait to see which one is picked as the winning photo - it’s going to be a very tough choice for everyone to make!”
