WoodChips Photo Competition
Congratulations to overall winner Richard Carter and the other successful entrants in the competition, who also have their photos featured in the WoodChips Conservation Calendar 2024: volunteers Andy Keay, Brian Gardner, Manuel Starr, Liz North and Graham Kenward.
Our beautiful woods and downland inspire the photographers among us and we had a great selection of photos for our 2024 calendar (kindly judged this year by Geof and Denise), so we are running the competition for another year.
The theme offers a wide range of possible subjects: the natural world of Banstead Wood and Chipstead Downs. (Anything that walks, crawls, flies or grows.) The WoodChips Photo Competition for their 2025 calendar will run from Friday 1st December 2023 to Friday 15th November 2024. HOW TO ENTER
Any photos entered must have been taken in the Banstead Woods and Chipstead Downs area. ENTRIES FOR THE COMPETITION SHOULD BE SUBMITTED IN LANDSCAPE FORM. You may enter up to four pictures of your choice. Please send your entries by email (good quality jpegs please) to [email protected] to reach us by 15th November 2024. Judging will take place as soon as possible after the closing date and the winning photo will appear on the cover of the 2025 WoodChips Calendar, which will feature the best pictures in the competition. HAPPY SNAPPING! |
