A winner will be crowned for each of the 8 competition categories, selected by an internal judging panel here at NBS. Each category winner will receive a £20 Gift Voucher to spend with us!
Anyone can vote for their favourite image without registration. Voters are limited to 1 vote per image, but can vote for as many images as they choose. The public vote is designed to give everyone the recognition their images deserve and encourage positivity amongst our wonderful community.
Overall #NBSPOTY2024 Winner
Our expert panel of judges will also pick one overall winner of #NBSPOTY2024. There is no specific criteria for this decision, other than it simply must take their breath away. Their pick will be crowned as the 2024 champion and the photographer responsible will be awarded this year’s grand prize!

Yes. You can manage your submissions through the page you used to upload them. Any edited/resubmitted photos will be subject to the same approval process as when originally uploaded.
We’re open to any file format that falls within our file size guidelines and can be digitally uploaded into the competition.

Portrait images will be accepted, but looked upon less favourably than landscape images.
Whilst we’d love you to experience the joy of learning to keep bees, we understand that this isn’t possible for everyone. For those who cannot/would prefer not to receive a starter kit, we will substitute the main prize for £250 in National Bee Supplies vouchers.
No. Images can be taken on any device, including phones, GoPros, tablets, compact cameras and larger cameras such as DSLRs.
“The keeping of bees is like the direction of sunbeams.”
