  • On 23 September 2024 , Nature-based photography is essential in journalism for raising awareness about environmental issues and enhancing storytelling. By capturing compelling images of landscapes and wildlife, photographers can evoke emotional responses and engage audiences. Key techniques include mastering light, composition, and timing, while ethical considerations involve ensuring authenticity, and obtaining consent when documenting communities. The impact of these images extends to education, advocacy, and mobilizing public opinion, making nature photography a powerful tool for inspiring action toward a sustainable future. Thus the competition was conducted for journalism club members to develop their skills, and contribute effective environmental reporting.
