Pictures win prizes

OLDHAM photographers could win £200 in the latest borough “Bloom and Grow” photography competition

The contest is open to anyone, of any photographic ability: last year’s winning shot was taken on an iPhone. There is no restriction on the number of individual submissions

Entrants are encouraged to capture woods, hills, parks, wildlife and amazing views across Oldham., or of friends enjoying such places.

This year’s theme is “Transforming Your Space”. Upload pictures to the Bloom and Grow Flickr account (www.flickr.com/groups/bloomandgrow2015/), email pictures to Bloomandgrow@oldham.gov.uk or tag photos on Twitter and Instagram with #BnG2015. The closing date is noon, June 28.

A panel of judges will choose a weekly winner in the run up to the big winner chosen by the public.

The competition is part of Bloom and Grow —Oldham Council’s entry into North-West in Bloom 2015.
