Rural Photography Award 2008
Applications have now opened for the Federated Farmers of New Zealand Rural Photography Award 2008, organised in conjunction with the New Zealand Guild of Agricultural Journalists and Communicators.
This award is open to any New Zealand-based journalist, photo-journalist, or photographer and is not restricted to NZGAJC members. However, an entry fee of $25 is required for non-members. The prize is $750.
