The St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park was pleased to host its Eleventh Annual Nature Photo Contest. Cash Prizes were awarded in three categories birds, reptiles and general wildlife, with a $500.00 grand prize for best of show. The contest was open to both amateur and professional photographers. Entries were received from all over the United States. The judge for this years contest was Arthur Morris, Birds as Art. He is an accomplished award-winning photographer.
With one of the most extraordinary wild bird rookeries in the state of Florida, the St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park attracts nature photographers from all over the country. Photos taken in the park are not only entered in the Alligator Farm Photo contest, but images have appeared nationally in magazines, newspapers, greeting cards and on various web sites. There were over three hundred photographs entered in this years contest making the judges decision a difficult one. Winning photographs will be on display at the Alligator Farm, and will also be available on our website.
