2008 Photographic Competition Results
GSI announces the results of the 2008 IYPE-Du Noyer Photographic competition and the latest news of the 2009 competition which promises to be bigger and better than ever.
GSI holds an annual photo competition and we welcome photos on any aspect of Irish or worldwide geology or landscape. The competition is named after George Victor Du Noyer, who served as a geologist with the Geological Survey of Ireland from 1847 to 1869.
George was a skilled field artist whose numerous sketches and pictures, with their combination of artistic skill and technical accuracy, were the “field photographs” of their day. This competition seeks to encourage the same blend of artistic and scientific skills through the medium of photography.
