Falkirk Science Festival Photographer of the Year 2025

Get snapping! We are inviting all high school pupils taking photography courses as part of the curriculum to take part in the first ever Falkirk Science Festival Young Photographer Competition. 

To take part you must be a pupil at one of the Falkirk Council high schools and enrolled in a photography course within your school.  For this year’s competition we have confirmation that photographs taken as part of your folio submission can be used. 
 
Photographs must be taken in Falkirk District only and the theme, for the competition is anything STEM  (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)  related, which allows a broad interpretation, so judges will be looking for imagination and style, as well as technical merit, content and composition. 
 
The closing date is 12 noon18th May 2025, note late submissions will not be allowed. To apply, please fill out the form below.
