2012 ADITNOW PHOTO COMPETITION

The 2012 AditNow photography competition is ready to go.

For those not familiar with it, or who joined the site in the last 12 months or so, we hold a photo competition every year. The intention is for a good natured competition, a bit of fun and photographs that are true to the site's exploring and documenting ethos.

It's also an opportunity for the site to give something back to the many, many people who generously contribute their photographs and knowledge.

For 2012 - Categories for Below Ground and Above Ground Photography

The topic for this year's competition is 'Mining Remains' and for the first time we've split it into categories for Below Ground and Above Ground photography.

In previous years the competition was open only to below ground photographs, however we felt this didn't fully represent the hobby or the breadth of interest.

Prizes

Once again some fantastic prizes up for grabs, in the Below Ground category we have a Sten Pack 1 from Excellent Stuff www.excellentstuff.co.uk as 1st prize, with a Fenix LD40 from ABC Powermarine www.abcpm.co.uk as runner's up prize.

In the Above Ground category The www.moorebooks.co.uk Prize for Excellence in Mining Surface Photography of £80 worth of mining books will be awarded to the winner.

Subject Matter

This year's subject is 'Mining Remains'.

This is deliberately broad and hopefully will encourage plenty of high quality photographs.

Full details, prize information and rules can be found on this page: http://www.aditnow.co.uk/static/mine-photographs-competition-2012.aspx

Competition closes on the 31st December, giving everybody plenty of time to get out and get their best shots Flowers

Remember you can change your entries at any time right up until the closing date.

If you want a look at the previous years winners you can find them here:

Please spread the word to friends, groups, club members etc. if they don't regularly visit the site. Everybody is welcome to enter!
