Send in Your Photos!
Monday, September 4th 2017
There’s less than two weeks to go until our photo competition to find amazing pictures for the 2018 Foxglove Covert Calendar closes. There’s still time to come in and take some photos or to search through those lovely ones you took on a previous visit. To inspire you, among the details for how to enter are some of those selected last year (for our 2017 calendar).
Is there anyone around? by Elizabeth Dickinson:
- Photos should be taken at Foxglove Covert LNR or on the surrounding moorland.
- Photos should illustrate the season and/or show some wildlife.
- We will choose 12 landscape format photographs to be used in the calendar and a portrait format photo for the front cover.
- Prizes for Best Adult photo and Best Child photo (16 years and under).
