Bracknell Flowers Photography Competition


Show us you’re a happy snapper!

Budding Bracknell Forest photographers are invited to get snap happy for a competition to support Bracknell Flowers.

Come on, we know there are some great photographers out there and you could win a composter or garden vouchers.

And your work may be published!

The competition, being run by Bracknell Forest Standard with the support of the Bracknell Flowers team at Bracknell Forest Council and Bracknell Regeneration Partnership (BRP), is aimed at generating some imaginative photos to support the campaign.

It is divided into three age categories – under nines, nine to 16-year-olds and 17 and over.

Use your imagination on the detail of the photograph but it must be of something in the borough featuring either gardens, flowers, wildlife or the environment.

The photos will be judged by professional photographers at the Bracknell Forest Standard and prizes include a composter and garden centre vouchers.

Winning photos will be posted on the Bracknell Forest Standard website and may appear in an exhibition area to be set up in Bracknell town centre.

For extra marks in the competition, you could base your picture on  this year’s Royal Horticultural Society Britain in Bloom theme which is Local Roots. 

For more information on this log on to either: Bracknell-forest.gov.uk or getbracknell.co.uk and see conditions below.

Please submit your photograph competition entries via email to kim.chapman@bracknellstandard.co.uk.

The closing date for the competition is August 24, any number of pictures can be submitted but they must be jpegs of at least 200dpi resolution and around 1 megabyte in size.

Closing Date: 24/08/2008

By entering the competition you agree to have your picture used in future marketing material by Bracknell Forest Council, BRP or Bracknell Forest Standard, so you may see it appearing in other publications in the future.

Anyone identifiable in the photos should have given their permission to be included or have the permission of a parent or carer.

The photograph should be your own work and not have been previously published or  been taken by a professional photographer.

The photographs will become the copyright of the competition organisers.

The judges’ decision is final.
