Can you take the perfect shot of our weather? From stunning sunsets to stormy seas and flashes of lightning, anyone can submit their most striking images to the Standard Chartered Weather Photographer of the Year competition.
Organised by the UK's Royal Meteorological Society, the competition is designed to encourage amateur and professional photographers to capture and document weather around the world.
The competition is open for entries until 27 June 2023, and the winner will be announced on 5 October 2023. There are three categories – the main award, the mobile photographer award and the young persons’ award (aged 17 and under), and prizes for the winning photographs.
Marisa Drew, Chief Sustainability Officer at Standard Chartered, said: “This partnership between the Royal Meteorological Society and Standard Chartered is designed to encourage amateur and professional photographers alike to capture and document our changing climate. I am truly excited to see the talent that will surface and hopefully foster action toward protecting our precious planet."
Climate change is the greatest challenge facing the world today. We’re committed to reaching net zero carbon emissions in our own operations by 2025, and in our financing activity by 2050.
