Participants must submit photographs no later than 5 p.m. on June 7th 2013 for judging, either by emailing to wilddeerireland@gmail.com, or by post to Wild Deer Association of Ireland, PO Box 31, Midleton, Co Cork. 

Photos will be on display on the night of the AGM. Prizes will be awarded following the AGM banquet meal. There is no limit on number of entries an individual may submit. Photos should not be framed. The competition is open to WDAI members only. The judge’s decision will be final and no correspondence will be entered into.

By submitting photographs, entrants accept that the Wild Deer Association of Ireland has the right to publish any or all entries.

Renowned wildlife photographer Fran Byrne has kindly agreed to judge the entries.
