Back for its second year, the 2024 Cornish Wildlife Photography Exhibition is a celebration of Cornwall’s wildlife and natural beauty with the display of winning and finalist images from Cornwall Wildlife Trust's '2024 Wildlife Photography Competition'.
The competition featured five categories: Feathered Friends, Ocean Wonders, Micro Marvels, Terrestrial Treasures, and Nature's Comedy. There was also a ‘Young Photographer’ category for those under 18 years of age.
Hundreds of people of all ages took part in the competition, so the top local wildlife and photography experts who made up the judging panel had a difficult time shortlisting the photographs for the final round of the competition.
The exhibition, held at Truro Cathedral, which started on 18 October, and runs until13 November, provides an opportunity to view the diversity of Cornwall's wildlife through 30 stunning photographs, learn interesting species and habitat facts, as well as provide you with the chance to vote for your favourite image via the 'People's Choice Award'.

It will be free to park in all Cornwall Council car parks and to travel on the Truro Park and Ride for three dates in December, including Small Business Saturday.
All Council 'pay and display' and 'pay on exit' car parks, as well as the Park and Ride, will be free on two Saturdays in December – 7th and 14th - and on Monday 23.
The Council is once again supporting Small Business Saturday, a national initiative now in its 11th year, highlighting small business success and encouraging consumers to 'shop local' and support small businesses in their communities.
All Cornwall Council car parks are clearly branded, and there will be posters about the parking offer at charging points on the free parking day.
If the car park is one of the ‘pay on exit’ car parks, you should take a ticket from the entrance barrier as usual. When leaving the car park, please insert your ticket into the machine by the exit barrier. If you have only parked on the free parking day, the barrier will open to allow you to exit. If you have stayed for longer than the free parking day, any additional parking fee will need to be paid for before you drive up to the exit barrier.
