It may only be March, but we're already looking for photographs for the 2012 North West Mega Event calendar. The format of the calendar will be the same as the Mega Scotland and Mega Wales calendars. All proceeds from the calendar will go directly towards the 2012 North West Mega Event.
There is no charge to enter the competition, and each person that has one or more photographs selected will win a free copy of the calendar. In addition to this, the photo chosen as the committee's favourite will also be awarded one of our new geocoins, which will be available later in the year.
To enter simply email your high-res photos to committee+calendar@mega2012.org.uk. Entries should have an outdoors and/or geocaching theme, and should have been taken in the North West of England (i.e. Cumbria, Lancashire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside or Cheshire). Since they are for a calendar, we ideally need photographs of all four seasons, so we're looking for crisp frosty mornings just as much as glorious sunny days. :)
If possible, please could you include in your email the location where the photographs were taken and/or a description of the subject.
The competition will be running until the end of next month, so why not take some photographs for the calendar next time you go caching? Photographs don't need to have been taken within the last year however - photos taken in previous years are just as welcome.
So get snapping! :)
