Bristol Civic Day 2012 Photo Competition
This year, we are holding a photography competition in the city, with the theme: “I love Bristol because….” We want to encourage members of the public to take a photo of their favourite building or open space in Bristol, and to send this to us. The best of these photographs will be awarded prizes, based on creativity, imagination and originality. Photography Made Simple www.photographymadesimple.co.uk have kindly donated prizes of a day's photography course at Ashton Court for each category winner, and 121 tuition for the overall competition winner.
