Cameraphone Photographer of the Year
The search is on to crown the UK's Cameraphone Photographer of the Year, 2006. The Times Online reports.
"Winner shots will be printed in The Times and be displayed in a top London gallery, The Air Gallery in London', along with other finalists from the competition. Winners will spend a day with a Times photographer to learn tips from a master. And, what's more, they'll also win an all-expenses-paid trip to capture their very own news shots.
In addition, the winner will be given the chance to represent the UK as their shot will be entered into Sony Ericsson's International Cameraphone Photographer of the Year competition.
The competition's open until November. Between now and then, The Time's panel of influential news and photography judges, including the Times Picture Editor, will choose the best photo every week. This will displayed in The Galleriy . From these weekly top shots, a monthly winner will be chosen. They'll appear in The Times' T2 supplement on Monday. And they'll also receive a Sony Ericsson cameraphone."
