Cameraphone Photographer of the Year

The cameraphone has transformed photography and photojournalism. Now The Times has teamed up with Sony Ericsson for The Search, a competition to find the world’s best pictures taken on a mobile phone. Photos in the category of News and Sport will be accepted this week.

"The winner’s picture will be displayed in The Times and a leading London gallery, where it will appear along with those of the other finalists.

The best snapper will also go on an all-expenses-paid trip to capture their own news shots, and will advance to represent Britain in Sony Ericsson’s international Cameraphone Photographer of the Year.
