Photography Competition

[Boddie]

Hi Guys

A friend of mine, who I studied with in France last year, and who I work beside, contacted me earlier about a place in Scotland that he has connections with. It looks like a fantastic piece of land with plenty of opportunities for fantastic photography of rare species.

The owners of this prestigious property are committed to preservation and captive breeding with a successful Capercaillie program amongst other schemes.

They are currently running a photography competition.

First prize is a free week on the ready-made holiday of your choice in 2006 or 2007 (subject to availability).

Second prize is 2 nights B&B in the House of Aigas for one.

For those under 16, the childrens' prize is a free week for 1 child and 1 accompanying adult in the Nature's Child programme.

I am sure one of you guys could win this comp so I have contacted Stuart and he is fine for me to mention this opportunity.

The site is http://www.aigas.co.uk and the photography competition is on the home page.

Good luck everyone

p.s.

I fit nicely in a holdall and am happy to help carry binos and camera gear

Actually

Having looked at this site in more detail I really rather fancy this prize myself. So please don't submit photos and give me a chance of winning

Worth a try, but I fear I'm too late

Fingers crossed, my nine year old is going to send in an entry. Jon

I refer you back to this thread again. Just under a month to go now til this comp finishes. I will be in Scotland over Easter and hope to get the shot that will win this comp but know I will be up against stiff competition from a few members of WAB.

Good luck guys

Thought I would give it a go ,so I have just sent a photo I took at The Otter estuary yesterday.It was lovely as the swan came really close and ducked his head under the water When I took the photo his head had just emerged and you can see the drops of water coming off the beak.

Best of luck Cherrybee. I am hoping to get up to Aigas next week, for a day, but fancy the holiday really

Is there a limit on how many times you can enter ?
