With over 12 million visitors a year, the Lake District has become one of the most popular British holiday destinations. With close on 1000 square miles of breathtaking countryside, it’s a photographers’ paradise and now, once again, photographers both professional and amateur are invited to take part in the second annual photographic competition held by the visitors’ website The Lake District Guide ( www.lake-district-guides.co.uk ).
Following the success of the website’s first photographic competition, the organisers are keen to encourage this year’s photographers to be as creative as possible and to keep an eye out for those more unusual shots of the Lakes. Although this is not to discourage the beautiful landscape shots on offer at every turn in one of the most photogenic areas in Britain, the unexpected photo can always bring a fresh viewpoint and a new appreciation of the familiar. The photographs can be of landscapes, people, places or activities. Indeed, anything associated with the Lake District is welcome.
Deadline is 31 October 2007. Visit the site for details.
