Photograhic Competition 2013

The theme is "Regeneration" and entering couldn't be easier:
Bring into school a photograph taken by yourself in the period between February 2013 and  mid April 2013; remember to save a digital copy if you have one. Pictures taken on smart phones can grab the spontaneous image but remember it will need to be transferred onto a memory stick or pc. As usual, the judging criteria will be primarily the geographic element but also the artistic merit and the overall quality.
Here are just a few ideas
~ the emerging landscape in Spring
~ regeneration of a rundown part of town
~ new life emerging on the farm or the fells
~ the new and the modern, from trams to wind farms
~ even the new start to the day
