Isle of Jura Launches Photography Competition

Posted on: December 4th, 2010 by Jason No Comments

The Isle of Jura is launching a ‘Wish You Were Here’ online travel photography competition to find the world’s most inspiring places. Budding photographers from across the world are being offered the chance to win an unforgettable trip to the island of Jura off Scotland’s dramatic West Coast.

With a community of less than 200 people, the island is rich in history, myths, superstitions, dramatic landscapes, diverse wildlife and whisky, all of which have provided inspiration to photographers, artists and writers from across the world. Partnering with VisitScotland on the prize, winners will enjoy a once in a lifetime photographic experience on the Isle of Jura with expert advice from National Geographic’s Jim Richardson.

Each one of the three winners and their partners will enjoy a week’s stay in the exclusive Jura lodge, a VIP tour of the Jura distillery and island and a two day photography master-class from National Geographic’s Jim Richardson. All travel arrangements will be paid for and the winners will also receive an Olympus E-PL1 camera to capture images from their visit.

To enter, applicants must upload a photo that they’ve taken of an inspiring destination onto an e-postcard template and describe on the back of that e-postcard what makes it so inspirational. A panel of judges including National Geographic’s Jim Richardson will assess a shortlist of the very best ‘postcards’ and pick three lucky winners – one from North America, one from the UK and a third from Europe.

The competition will run for eight weeks, closing on Friday 21 January 2011. Every week for the duration of the competition, Jura and VisitScotland will also pick a Postcard of the Week, with an Olympus FE-5050 camera to be won each week.

Entrants are also encouraged to share their e-postcards with friends and family who will be able to vote for their favourite and automatically be entered into a prize draw to win bottles of Jura 10 year old single malt and other Jura goodies.

If you like photography competitions then there are a number of competitions on Loquax as well as a few offering camera prizes.
