Yorkshire Dales photography competition is back!

A popular photography competition and exhibition celebrating the beauty and character of the Yorkshire Dales landscape is open for entries.

The competition, run by charity Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust (YDMT) and The Garden Rooms at Tennants in Leyburn, hopes to encourage people to get out into the Dales with a camera and share photographs of their favourite landscapes and wildlife.

Every year 35 finalists are selected, whose work will be included in a gallery exhibition at The Garden Rooms in summer.

Twelve of the shortlisted images will also be featured in a Yorkshire Dales 2026 charity calendar on sale from August 2025 at www.ydmt.org/shop.

YDMT Marketing Manager Lindsay Wallace said: “The Yorkshire Dales photo competition is going from strength to strength, every year we’re astounded by the standard of photos submitted. It’s a great way for amateur photographers to get their work seen, and also an important way for us, as a small charity working to look after the Yorkshire Dales, to help showcase this special area with some fantastic photos.”

“The photography competition is one of the highlights of our year, and we are always delighted to see the creativity and photographic skills of those who love the Dales as much as we do.” Alison Tennant, Director at The Garden Rooms at Tennants

The competition will run until 27th April 2025.
