The second is ‘The Natural World’. This can be any photo of flora or fauna taken anywhere.
The dates of the exhibition of all entries, and judges’ results will be the May Bank Holiday 3rd to 5th May 2014.
One change is that the children’s category will be split into two groups: up to 10 years and 10 to 18 years.

Cover shot competition
The Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Partnership is holding a photography competition this summer to find a cover for its 2014 Northumberland Coast Visitor Guide.
Liz Walters from the AONB Partnership said “We publish 40,000 copies of our visitor guide each year, the guide provides lots of really useful information helping visitors to make the most of their visit to the coast. First impressions count, so it is really important to have a front cover image that is really stunning and will encourage visitors to pick up a copy and read it”
“The photo must have been taken within the Northumberland Coast AONB but can be of virtually anything. Showing people in the landscape, but not dominating it, is a good thing as it helps visitors to picture themselves there”.
Images need to be in an electronic format and be 280 X 356 mm (3307 x 4205 pixels, resolution 300dpi). The closing date for entries is 1st October 2013. Send them to coastaonb@northumberland.gov.uk
