We are opening our fifth seasonal photo competition on 1 October – with the winner again being selected by the public and published in Around Ealing magazine and on this website. Autumn 2018 Seasons of Ealing is here.
Entries to the latest Seasons of Ealing can be sent in from next Monday (1 October 2018). You know the drill by now. The idea is for you to send in your favourite snaps of anything of an autumnal flavour. It could be a landscape, a skyline, wildlife, your family playing in fallen leaves; whatever takes your eye. The key is that it has to be taken in the borough. We look forward to seeing your excellent pictures.
The picture we used above was sent in to last year’s autumn competition and was by Danuta Krupa. It was one of nine shortlisted entries. The winner of the competition in the end was of a colourful snail by Katarzyna Kicinska (right).
You can view all four previous Seasons of Ealing shortlists on our gallery page.
HOW DO I ENTER?
Photos must be received by the closing deadline for entries, which is 11.59pm on 31 October 2018. After that point, a panel will judge the entries and select a shortlist. These shortlisted photos will be showcased on a gallery on this website – and then everyone can get involved because the winner will be selected via a public poll we will run at Facebook.com/EalingLondon – after which the winner will be announced.
You should email your photo to ealingpics@gmail.com by the closing deadline for your entry/entries to be considered.
For your photo to be considered you must also follow this process:
- Put Seasons of Ealing in the subject line of the email
- Include your name, postal address and phone number
- Include a brief description of what the photo is of, when you took it and where you took it
- State that the photo was taken by you, and that you also have permission of any people whose faces appear in the photo to enter the photo into the Seasons of Ealing competition
- Make sure the image is of a high enough resolution to be reproduced online and in print (i.e. poor quality images will not be considered).
Other things to know
By entering the competition you are agreeing for your photo to be reproduced in Around Ealing magazine, EalingNewsExtra.co.uk website, and the council’s social media channels at any time.
