Huntingdon in Bloom, a wildlife committee, is running a photo calendar competition to capture the beauty of the town. 

The competition comes after a successful entry into the national competition, Britain in Bloom.

The team at Huntingdon in Bloom took to one of the spring floral planters on Huntingdon's ring road to celebrate the launch of the competition.

Natasha Pierson, Coordinator for Huntingdon in Bloom, said: "We wanted to go back to our roots and really highlight the best parts of Huntingdon.

"Our floral displays and green spaces change so quickly, that we want to capture and remember it all year round.

"We also have so many keen photographers in the area and we want to celebrate their talents.

"A calendar is the perfect way to do this."

Anyone can enter the competition and there is no need to be a professional photographer.

You can submit as many images as you like, but they must have been taken between September 2023 and August 2024.

They must also feature a location in Huntingdon, and it must focus on plants, wildlife, nature and/or green spaces.

If an image includes an individual, you must have their permission to be included in both the photo and the calendar.

Photos have to be sent as JPEG or TIFF files, with a minimum image resolution of 300dpi. 

Photos should be submitted by email to: town.council@huntingdontown.gov.uk and the deadline for all of the submissions is Saturday, August 31 2024.

All of the submissions will be reviewed by members of the Huntingdon in Bloom committee.

12 winning images will be selected for the calendar, and one image will be selected as the front cover.

Other submissions may be used by the Huntingdon in Bloom committee in their campaigns, on their social media, and their portfolio entry for the Anglia in Bloom competition.
