Photography contest deadline extended

The contest, which challenges school pupils to creatively capture rushing water from waterfalls and rivers in their local area, is part of the Scottish Government’s Saltire Prize.

The top entrants in three categories – primary, S1-S3 and S4-S6 – will each receive photography equipment for themselves and their school.

Regional entries will be judged by a panel led by Roger Jonathan, group picture editor of The Scotsman Publications Ltd, with the national winners decided by renowned photographer David Eustace.

Entries should be submitted by November 9 at www.scotland.org/power-of-the-sea or to Power of the Sea, Stripe Communications, 116 Dundas Street, Edinburgh, EH3 5EE.

Each entry must include one jpeg image of at least 300 dpi and entry form. Postal entries must include a disc with the image and form.
