Could your photo of Chichester Harbour be worth £100? Photographers of all
abilities are being invited to spend the summer taking shots of the harbour to enter
into a competition.

Chichester Harbour which is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is
one of the finest landscapes in England. The unique combination of water, land and
wildlife makes the harbour a photographer’s dream. From the traditional villages
such as Bosham and Emsworth to the drama of dinghy races on the water and the
calm of coastal footpaths, there are plenty of opportunities for photography.
The theme of this year’s competition is ‘Inspired by Chichester Harbour Area of
Outstanding Natural Beauty’. Each entrant can submit up to three photographs, each
with a short caption explaining what makes the photograph special.
Judges from Chichester Observer, Whitby’s Imaging Centre and Chichester Harbour
Conservancy will choose three winners and 15 runner-ups. The public will then be
asked to vote for their favourite to win a further prize.
Robert Harvey, who has entered the competition before said, ‘my annual week at
Dell Quay wouldn't be complete without being able to add a competitive edge to my
happy snapping as I wander about’. Ali Beckett, organiser of the competition said, ‘I
am looking forward to seeing this year’s entries and seeing what inspires people
about this special place.’
