About the Nature Photography Society of New Zealand
We are a society of enthusiasts who explore and enjoy nature photography through guest lectures, field trips, exhibitions, members' showcases and social nights. We enjoy getting out with our cameras in hand on weekend and day field trips to explore and appreciate many parts of the country and hone our photography skills. We also do the occasional field trip to more exotic locations, such as Africa and the wilds of Stewart Island.
Our society is slightly different to others in that we do not run competitions within our society. However, we do occasionally hold exhibitions of members' work and plan to mount similar ones on a regular basis as a means of showcasing our members' talent. Please have a look around our website. If you would like more information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Code of Ethics
Nature photographers pursue their interests because they appreciate the value of the natural world. They hope that through their actions they will encourage all that participate in the enjoyment of nature to do so in ways that best promote good stewardship of natural resources.
