What is the calendar competition?

The Burton and Nettleton calendar competition started just last year and proved hugely popular. Entries to the competition vie for a place in the 2023 calendar. The competition is open to residents of Burton and Nettleton to submit their best landscape and nature shots taken within a three mile radius of St Mary’s Church.

How to enter

All photos must be your own work and are to be a minimum of 300 ppi, and a maximum of 1MB. Landscape orientation is preferred, but not essential. Photos which represent a month of the year are more likely to be published. All winners and runners-up of Burton’s monthly photo competition are automatically entered. Other than that, photos must not previously have been published elsewhere. 

Email your photograph, with ‘Calendar’ in the subject header, stating the photo location, plus your full name and address in the content, to BCAphotocompetition@gmail.com.
