Travel Photographer of the Year?

Above is a slide show showing some of the highlights from the last four years from the Travel Photographer Of The Year awards.  As the summer holidays are coming up I thought I would introduce St Ursula’s Travel Photographer Of The Year award (for staff and students). 

The image can be of anywhere you have travelled to this summer (if you aren’t going on holiday it could be a photo of an interesting place in London).  All I ask is that the photo must have a sense of place and that they are in a digital format.  Look at the examples above to give you some ideas.  The place must be identified in your application and make sure you label your file so that I know who you are.

Images can be put into the geography shared network folder under photocompetition. 

There are three categories Y7-Y9,   Y10-Y11 and Over 16 (Staff).  All photos entered will be shown on this blog in the online gorgeous geography flickr gallery so every one has a chance to show of their photographic talents.  There will be  prizes for the Winners and two runner up prizes and the winning entries will have their digital images printed and framed and awarded in assembly.

There is also a Young Travel Photographer of the Year award with some fantastic prizes to be won so if any of your entries are particularly good we could enter them in this prestigious competiton also.
