Photo Contest

Following the huge success of last year’s photographic competition, OWLS is delighted to announce that we are running another competition this year, with an exhibition scheduled in October.

Once again, the competition is open to Oxhill residents of all ages.

There are two categories & prizes for 2 age groups: children aged 12 & under and adults.

Category 1 - Local nature: This can include any wildlife photos such as birds, plants, insects, wildflowers, trees & landscapes taken in Oxhill.

Category 2 - British nature: This can include photos of the natural world taken anywhere in Britain.

The closing date is the end of September so there is plenty of time to get clicking!

As you are aware, last year’s winning entries were used to produce our very own Oxhill OWLS calendar. At the photographic exhibition in October we hope to have 2011 calendars & cards available for you to buy (Christmas presents sorted!). The calendar’s format this year will be bigger (A4) & better than ever.

Please submit prints that are no larger than A5 in size to Rhian (680574), Grenville (680664) or any of the OWLS members. Each entry will cost 50p & there is no limit to the number of entries you can submit. Please write your name and age category on the back of each print and give each photo a title.

Good luck & happy snapping!
