Nethadara’25 – Album is OUT!

After six long years, the Nature Team of the University of Moratuwa proudly brought back Nethadara, the iconic wildlife photography exhibition and competition. Held on the 14th and 15th of September 2025, the event was a celebration of nature’s beauty and the talent of young photographers who captured it.

More than 300,000 LKR worth of prizes were awarded to our winners, recognizing their creativity, patience, and love for the wild. The exhibition brought together students, alumni, and nature lovers to relive the wonder of Sri Lanka’s rich biodiversity through stunning lenses.
