Ready, steady, click for camera competition

As final preparations for the 2012 Olympic/Paralympic Games gather pace, Teesside University is calling on amateur photographers to capture on camera what this historic event means to them.

Teesside University aims to encourage people living, working and studying in Darlington to visually depict what inspires them about the Olympic/Paralymic Games in a new photography competition.

It follows the success of a similar competition held last year to mark the opening of the University’s £13m five-storey Darlington campus, when people were asked to submit photographs reflecting what Darlington means to them.

Entries for this year’s Olympic theme photography competition are in four age categories: • 8 - 10 years • 11 - 16 years • 17 - 21 years • 22+ years.

The closing date for entries is 30 April. A winner from each category will receive photography vouchers.

The winning entries will be announced and displayed at the University's Darlington campus open day on 11 July.
