" Built in Southern France "
Those who were at the
Christmas Lunch will have seen some of the photos that were entered for last
year's competition, and will hopefully have been inspired to have a go
themselves this year.
You don't need to be a keen
photographer or have expensive equipment to be able to produce excellent photos
– modern mobile phones and inexpensive cameras can produce great pictures.
If you want to see last year's
entries they are still online at
Every year it is difficult to
decide on the subject for the photo competition so thank you to those who came
up with suggestions at the Christmas Lunch and in reply to our recent
request. After much discussion the committee has decided that the subject
for 2018 is to be
" Built
in Southern France "
which can be anything old
or new, from a chateau to a sandcastle, a bridge or the canal beneath it, an
architectural detail or a complete building, so get out with your camera and
let your creativity fly.
Last year’s competition
allowed you to enter photos from around the world but this year we’ve gone back
closer to the roots of BritsNîmes and restricted the location to anywhere in
southern France, so there’s still plenty to see and photograph.
The rules are
simple:
Photos must be taken by a
BritsNîmes member.
They must have been taken in
2018.
You can only enter 3 photos.
That's it!
Here are a few
tips that may help you:
For the time being you can
enter as many photos as you like and then choose later which ones to withdraw
if you have more than 3.
It will be possible to swap
photos right up to the closing date.
A shortlist of 12 photos will
be chosen by an online vote of all BritsNîmes members
and displayed at the AGM/Christmas Lunch, when the winners will be picked by
those attending.
A limit of 2 photos per person
will be permitted amongst the finalists and only one prize will be awarded to
any entrant.
Don't hold back because you
think your photos aren't good enough.
If you like them the chances
are that other members will like them as well.
It's simple, it's free, and
you could win a valuable prize so you have nothing to lose.
Happy snapping,
Graham
