Science Photographer of the Year Exhibition

Immerse yourself in incredible science photography from around the world, at the Science Photographer of the Year exhibition. Direct from the Royal Photographic Society in the UK, this visual spectacular will feed your scientific and artistic imagination.

The extraordinary photographs will inspire you to take a closer look at the world around you. Captured using everything from iPhones to electron microscopes, there are stunning images from every branch of science. From telescopes to tadpoles, an electrified safety pin and even the skull of King Richard III, you will be surprised and delighted.

Science Photographer of the Year is an annual competition for photographers from all over the world, regardless of age or experience. Organised by the Royal Photographic Society in the United Kingdom, images can cover any topic of science, whether straight out of the lab or showing the impact of science in the world around us. Only two categories exist for entry – under 18s, and everybody else. This is the first year of the competition and it was exhibited at London’s Science Museum until January 2020.

Admission is included in MOTAT General Admission.
