submitting your entry.
Who can enter

Submitting your entry
2. The entrants must only submit pictures
along the theme of 'My Community', and each entry must fit
into one of the three competition
categories. By entering into the competition the entrant
agrees that they are the photographer and they are not infringing
any copyright laws by posing as the photographer for their entry.
In the 'Past' category we understand that it may not have been
possible for the entrant to have taken the photograph so for this
category only, the entrant is just required to have permission to
use the photograph for the purposes of this competition.

an email to bigpicture@affinitysutton.com
attaching their photo entry in the appropriate format (see point

the email. They must also specify which of the three categories they are submitting
their photo for. If the entrant does not supply this
information in the email with their attached photo they may not be
considered. If you do not have access to email,
please call Emily Day on 0300 100 0303 so we can arrange to
receive your photo/s on CD or a hard copy.

email by 5pm, Friday 24 February 2012, to be considered
