Hi-Tec announce April winner of 'Inspire Me' photography competition.

 James Carnegie

British outdoor brand Hi-Tec has announced that James Carnegie from Jersey has won its ‘Inspire Me’ photography competition for April.

The competition, which launched last month, aims to find the nation’s favourite outdoor, walking or hiking image. The judges chose the humorous but truly Outdoor inspired photo titled Setting Up Camp which features James and his friend pitching their tent in a truly remarkable and memorable spot in the Lake District.

Each month a Hi-Tec judging panel will choose their favourite photograph - with the lucky winner receiving a top of the range pair of Hi-Tec walking boots. Next April, all12 winning entries will go head to head in a bid to find the most inspiring picture of the year – with the winner heading off on a fantastic HF Holiday family walking trip worth over £1000.

Upon winning the first month’s award, James said, “Thank you Hi Tec – that’s been a favourite photo for a long time and it really sums up a great few (very wet and windy) days spent hiking in the Lake District with friends. Sometimes you forget how truly breathtaking some of the UK’s landscapes and vistas are and it takes a few days exploring to re-invigorate you.”

Helen Durant, Marketing Manager for Hi-Tec, said of the competition, “Outdoor lovers across British Isles have sent many various inspiring photos that really display quite clearly what a beautiful country we live in! Hi-Tec is a proud British Outdoor and Sports brand with a heritage in producing some of the best walking boots for the entire family – and we’re encouraging people to take full advantage of the country’s brilliant walking routes by sending in their favourite images.”

To enter the May competition, entrants just need to visit www.hi-tec.com/uk to upload their image, and there is no limit to the number of entries that can be submitted. All entries will appear on the Hi-Tec website and Facebook page.
