For all keen amateur photographers, here are early details of the 2010 Çalış Carnival Photography Competition.

The annual competition, which is sponsored this year by Calis based “English & More” International Learning Centre, is open to amateur photographers of all ages. For the first time this year, thanks to the generosity of the sponsors, there will be cups for the 6 adult winners of the various categories PLUS cups for the 6 Junior winners (under 16 years old). There will also be certificates for the 2nd and 3rd placed entries in all categories.

There are six categories for you to enter:

Humorous
Portrait/People
Wildlife/Nature/Animals
Seascape/Landscape
Cultural/History
Black and White/Sepia – any subject

The one major condition of the competition is that all photographs must be taken in Turkey. Contestants can enter one photograph in every category and the photographs can be mounted or un-mounted (but not framed). The entrant should put their name and contact details and the category on the back of the photograph or mounting board.

The winners will be chosen by an independent panel of judges including sponsors English & More and professional photographer Hakan Sahin of Fethiye.

Entries should be handed in to FETAV Office, Kismet Bar or Val’s Bar in Fethiye or into the Nil Bar or Golden Moon Estates office in Çalış. The closing date for the competition is Tuesday 18 May.

All of the photographs will be exhibited as part of the Carnival Exhibition on Çalış seafront on Saturday 29 May.

Even if you are not in Turkey you can still enter the competition when you are out on holiday or you could get someone to bring your photos out for you. Unfortunately the Carnival Committee cannot accept e-mailed photos as they cannot be responsible for printing these entries.

Entrants should be aware that all photographs entered will not be returned but will become the property of the Çalış Carnival Committee and may be used in future carnival publicity projects. For example some of the photographs entered in previous years have been featured in the Carnival Calendars and on charity Christmas cards.
