Calling all photographers and nature lovers!

Oberon Council and the Oberon Visitor Information Centre have launched the Awesome Oberon Photo Comp as they prepare to refresh the region’s Tourism Brochure in early 2026.

Locals and visitors alike are invited to submit their best snaps that showcase the beauty, people, and lifestyle of the Oberon region—including the villages of Black Springs, O’Connell, Burraga, and Jenolan, as well as the stunning Kanangra Boyd, Evans Crown Nature Reserve, and Yerranderie State Conservation Area.

Winning images will feature in the new brochure and other promotional material, with prizes awarded at the end of each season. The quarterly prizes will include fantastic local produce, making this a deliciously rewarding opportunity for photography enthusiasts.

Entries close at 5pm on the final day of each quarter—February, May, August, and November 2025—so dig through your digital albums or head out and capture the moment!

Photos must be: Of the Oberon region; At least 1MB in size and free from logos/watermarks; Original works by the entrant; Accompanied by a caption, the photographer’s name, and names of any people pictured.

Portrait or landscape formats are accepted (landscape preferred), and subjects can include people, animals, events, landscapes, and activities that reflect life in Oberon.

All entries should be emailed to: tourism@oberon.nsw.gov.au. For large files, Dropbox or similar services are recommended.

By entering, photographers agree that Oberon Council and the Visitor Centre may use their photos (with credit) in future publications.

Sponsored by Oberon Council and the Oberon Visitor Information Centre, this is your chance to put your photography skills in the spotlight—and help promote our incredible region!
