A private view of the 2026 Bailiwick Wildlife Photography Exhibition is taking place this evening, with the doors opening to the public tomorrow, at the Greenhouse Gallery at Candie.
Guernsey Arts says that this year’s exhibition features work from more than 90 local photographers of various ages.
According to the organisers, the display aims to highlight the diverse wildlife found within the Bailiwick, and encourages viewers to appreciate local nature.
The entries, which opened to submissions in October last year, have been judged by Tim Harvey and representatives from the Nature Commission, and in addition to the standard awards, Guernsey Arts will announce winners for two specific categories.
There’s the Mourant Sustainability Award, which has been sponsored by the law firm, which continues to support the exhibition’s ethos for a second year.
Then there’s the Barry Wells’ Award, which is targeted at student photographers for work within the ‘Pollinator’ category.
From tomorrow, the 2026 Bailiwick Wildlife Photography Exhibition is pen during normal museum hours, with entry included in the standard Candie admission fee or free for Discovery Pass holders.
Friday will also see the local launch of the world-renowned exhibition ‘Wildlife Photographer of the Year’, on loan from the Natural History Museum in London.
It features some of the most exceptional nature photography from across the globe displayed right here in Guernsey.
