The most prestigious competition in Australia is the ANZANG nature & landscape photographer of the year competition.

It uses this competition to raise awareness of the wilderness & to support conservation. Apart from cash prizes the winning photos form part of a travelling exhibition.
Nikon Small World contest is just breath taking to see from microscopy shooters from around the world. 1st prize is $3,000 to spend on Nikon gear, with a total of 11 prizes. The winner also gets trips, etc. Charles Krebs from another forum has done very well in this one over the years, so its legit.
1st Prize
$3,000—toward the purchase of Nikon equipment. In addition, the winner will be invited to attend an awards presentation ceremony in New York City as Nikon’s special guest.
2nd Prize
$2,000—toward the purchase of Nikon equipment.
3rd Prize
$1,000—toward the purchase of Nikon equipment
All the best and hey, its specialized, but what isn't
I highly recommend Banff Centre's annual contest. They don't fork out much $ but there's no entry fee. They only get rights to show off your photos, and you retain your ownership rights. Course with Adamus snatching up all the prizes i may never win again, but it won't keep me from trying!
