Wanderlust Travel Photo of the Year competition
DO YOU HAVE AN EYE FOR A GREAT PHOTO?
Since we launched the 16th annual Wanderlust Travel Photo of the Year competition in July we’ve once again been astonished by the quality of the entries that have been submitted. From portraits of elephants in Kenya to the Great Wall of China at sunset to colourful Indian festivals, we’ve poured over a host of compelling and captivating images.
However, there is still time for both amateur ?and professional photographers to enter their ?best shots in to the UK’s biggest amateur travel photo competition for a chance to win some outstanding prizes.
The winning images, plus a selection of shortlisted shots, will be printed in Wanderlust magazine and website, The Independent newspaper and will be showcased in a stunning exhibition at Destinations 2012, the UK’s top holiday and travel show. The selected images will be printed by PhotoBox, the UK’s No. 1 company for photo printing.
The fantastic prizes in the five categories – four solely for amateur photographers – include £3,000 cash, photo commissions to Colombia and great Nikon digital cameras.
