Today, Wanderlust's Travel Photo of the Year competition 2012 officially opens. Enter today for your chance to win a trip to the stunning archipelago, or a £3,000 cash prize...
Ever year Wanderlust launches the UK's biggest and best travel photo competition. And every year we're amazed by the images taken by photographers just like YOU!
Entering is simple – there are two options: Amateur (open to amateurs only) and Portfolio (open to both amateur and professional photographers). Follow some of the top tips in the second issue of Take Better Travel Photos (on sale online and in WH Smiths today), send in your snaps, and you could well be a winner.
WIN an assignment for Wanderlust
Exotic, remote, the stuff of true travel legend – welcome to Papua New Guinea! You'll never be short of a photo opportunity in this wild and diverse country. Hike through volcanic mountains covered in steaming rainforest where more than 800 indigenous languages are still spoken by tribesmen. Witness a tribal singsing (festival), snap birds of paradise, or explore underwater in the pristine coral atolls of Papua New Guinea's islands.
We've joined up with the Papua New Guinea Tourist Office – to send the four winners of the Wanderlust Photo of the Year Amateur competition on an incredible photographic commission to the country. For a chance to win, you simply have to enter up to four photographs into our amateur competition.
Pictures can be taken anywhere in the world, but must fit with one of four categories: People, Wildlife, Landscape or Travel Icons.
Win £3,000!
The Portfolio competition is open to both amateur and professional photographers (and it's often won by amateurs). Here, we're after a set of five eye-catching images that work together as a set – they should be striking images in themselves that, when put together, tell a cohesive and spectacular story.
Similar to the Amateur competition, the Portfolios must fit one of the same four categories: People, Wildlife, Landscape or Travel Icons. The winner will walk away with a whopping £3,000.
So go on then...
The competition is now officially open! You can enter on the Wanderlust website here.
Closing date for entries is 18 October 2012. Good luck!
