The Nature Photography Competition is now well established, with five categories; Scottish Wildlife, World Wildlife, Landscape, Creative Visions of Nature and Environmental Impact. 2010 sees a new category introduced, 'World Flora'. The judges include multi award-winning wildlife photographer Laurie Campbell and renowned landscape photographer Graham Riddell and, in true "X-Factor" style, during the exhibition at the Seabird Centre, visitors can also vote for their favourites, which is added to the final score.
