An exciting new photography competition
was launched in April 2010 to celebrate the beauty of
the Cotswolds. Both amateur and established photographers
of all ages are invited to submit photographs which they
feel capture the essence of the Cotswolds. Winning entries
will be displayed in the O3 Gallery's Christmas Exhibition
which opens 26th November (Oxford's Christmas Light Night).
The competition is the idea of local landscape photographer
Sarah Howard, supported by the Cotswolds Conservation
Board, Blueprint Imaging of Witney and Isis Framing,
Oxford.
The overall winner will take away a 2 night stay (including
dinner on one evening) at the historical White Hart Royal
Hotel in Moreton-in-Marsh in the beautiful Evenlode Valley,
plus a one day one to one photography workshop in the
Cotswolds with Sarah. There are lots of other fantastic
prizes, including a fabulous Ricoh R10 camera for the
overall youth winner, a half day Photoshop tuition with
digital imaging expert Claire Reika Wright, a Manfrotto
190 XDB tripod and Lowepro mini trekker, courtesy of
Morris Photographic plus a one years subscription to
Outdoor Photography magazine and over £300 worth of Image
Seen gift vouchers. There will also be an opportunity
to win a commission for local Cotswolds publication The
Four Shires in 2011.
Youth winners (aged 16 and under) judged the best in
each category will win a place on a one day photography
workshop with Sarah.
