Get in the frame - and win prizes for your photography

29 September 2011 - A picture’s worth a thousand words, famously said Fred R Barnard in the advertising trade journal Printers’ Ink, 8 December 1921. Yours could win a great prize in the photographic competition for disabled photographers, launched jointly at this year’s Mobility Roadshow by The Disabled Photographers’ Society and charity Mobility Choice.

It calls for pictures with the theme On the Move - whether at home, locally or further afield. You’ve probably taken some great holiday shots over this summer (even if the light wasn’t always that bright here in the UK).

Share them with us: entries close on 15^th October 2011 and are invited in three age categories - under 12s, 12-18 and over 18. Prizes include a Merlin Annual Pass for a disabled person and carer, which provides entry to a range of top UK attractions such as LEGOLAND Windsor and Madame Tussauds for 12 months, plus Calumet photographic accessories.

Shortlisted and winning entries will be exhibited at Calumet Photographic near Euston Station in London for four weeks from 7^th January 2012, with the prize giving ceremony at the same venue on 11^th January.

Entry forms, terms and conditions are available at www.disabledphotographers.co.uk and www.mobilitychoice.org.uk
