Nature Biennial 2024

Call for Images
FIAP have issued the details of the Nature Biennial to be arranged in 2024.
The IPF will make an entry to represent Ireland – as we have done in previous years.
We are now calling for all photographers to send us images which can be considered for inclusion in the panels to represent Ireland.

We are looking for images under two categories:
· Birds in Action
· Insects Close Up

You can upload your images using the competition software at this link: https://ipfhost.org/main/main.php

You may already have used this site before – so your previous login and password will work.

If this is your first time you will need to register. To do this click the “LOGIN” button and then click on the Light Blue “Register” button. You can then enter your details and wait for a confirmation email before you can upload your images. This confirmation email may take a while to arrive as it requires a human to approve it – and we do not have a full-time staff.

If you have forgotten your password you can reset it by clicking on the orange “Password Reset” button.

Once you are logged in click on the “Competitions” tab and on the “Competitions for..” link. This will contain your name. Under it you will see the FIAP Nature Biennial 2024 competition.

You will then see this screen:
The orange writing gives you the information about how you can upload your images.
Please note that there are size requirements. FIAP need the images to be 3,500 pixels on the longest side.

We would appreciate it if you could consider this request and pass it on to everyone you know who is interested in nature photography. The more images we have, the better the entry to represent Ireland.
