BUDDING photographers can go shoulder-to-shoulder with the pros as they set their focus on nature shots for the 2026 Goulburn Broken Catchment (GBC) calendar.
Entries have opened for the popular calendar, known for its stunning collection of local images taken by community members.
GBC Management Authority CEO Carl Walters said the calendar photo competition was a great way for local people to showcase their photographic skills of plants, animals and the environment and that amateurs should be confident to enter.
“Of the eighteen members of the public who had their photos selected for this year’s calendar, six were first-time contributors,” Mr Walters said.
“The calendar photo competition continues to attract new interest from people who are out and about in nature with their camera, right across the catchment.

Images of birds, animals, plants, insects, and natural places in the Goulburn Broken catchment can be emailed to Janice Mentiplay-Smith at janicem@gbcma.vic.gov.au
Photos must be between 2-10MB in landscape orientation (not portrait) with a caption and submitted as a jpeg file attachment and not inserted into the text of the email.
The Broken Boosey Conservation Management Network Advisory Group assists with selecting the best photos for inclusion in the calendar.
