Motion - Meet the Judges

Motion is the latest of our competition categories and is open for entries throughout September. Motion is the penultimate category for WildArt POTY 2021, so you don’t have many opportunities left if you’d like to enter the competition. Here is what we are looking for in this category.

Wildlife is rarely static - we have all been frustrated by subjects that won’t stay still, and that may crawl, hop, run or fly away. But everything moves, even subjects that may appear static - the leaves of a tree or petals on a flower blowing in the wind for example. This is a category open to a wide degree of artistic interpretation - use your imagination to capture the dynamics of movement in nature - show Kaisa and Jari something amazing and you may run away with a prize. Watch the video opposite where Jari and Kaisa discuss the category with Rob Read and share some of their own photography.

Jari and Kaisa are supporting a nest box scheme for the Great Grey Owl in Finland with their category. WildArt will donate £0.20 for every image entered to this conservation project.

Motion is now open for entries and closes at midnight BST on 30th September 2021.
