“I was so excited to win this year’s Young Photographer Competition. I love photography, so seeing my work displayed as part of the exhibition at Ilkley Manor House made me feel incredibly happy and proud. Knowing that other people are seeing and enjoying my photography makes the experience even more special.”
Committed to making space for younger voices, a key part of the festival is the Young Photographer Competition, which invites children and young people to share their own views. The winning images from the competition will be exhibited at the Manor House, offering an important platform for emerging talent and fresh perspectives.
