BBC Photography contest

Post by Tarun Biswas »

Here are the themes:

ENTRY DEADLINES: THEMES
2 August - Shelter
9 August - Rock 'n' Roll
16 August - Uniform
23 August - Technology
30 August - Love
6 September- Look up
13 September - Final vote


Summer's here and once again it's time to dust off your camera and put your skills to the test in our annual photography competition.
We'd like you to send in your photos on the themes listed in the box below.

Please interpret the brief as widely as you can - don't just think of the obvious.

Remember we are looking for compelling photos that will grab our attention.

Voting

Following the closing date for each theme the twelve best pictures will be selected by our picture desk and displayed in a picture gallery a week later. You will then have 24 hours in which to vote for your favourite.

The two photos that get the most votes will go forward to the final when you will be able to decide who is awarded the title of BBC News website Photographer of the Year 2006.

The prizes

Overall winner chosen by you: The chance to shoot a photographic story of your choice which will then be displayed on the BBC News website. We will contribute up to £400 towards the cost of the project.

In addition there will be an extra prize made to the photographer whose image catches our eye.

How to submit a picture

So please get out there and start snapping, then send your pictures to us at:

yourpics@bbc.co.uk


Please remember to put "Photographer of the Year" and the theme you are entering in the subject heading of your e-mail.

Don't forget to include your name and some background information as to what the image is about.

Submissions must be in digital form; ideally Jpegs with a height or width limit of up to 800 pixels.

If you have a specific question about the competition please contact the picture editor at the above e-mail address.
