The pre-amble…
After the restrictions on our liberty and the related stresses associated with the ongoing pandemic, the launch of a photographic competition could be viewed as a distraction at a time of national crisis. I hope 
it is! Perhaps this will help take our minds off the ongoing booster jabs program and the fact that Christmas is just around the corner.
This will be the Network’s ninth POTY competition which once again is being sponsored by Motorsport Images. While the prizes are modest and may not set the pulses racing, some of the images seen over that nine year period, certainly will. A portfolio of prior years winning photographs would be testament to that. However, the competition is not all about expensive lenses, photographic technique or the use of ‘depth of field’, and far more about seeing the shot and capturing the moment or the atmosphere. This can just as easily be achieved via the camera on your smartphone or the compact camera you keep in your pocket. The rules for entry are straightforward and can be viewed below. Don’t be afraid to enter, look through your old hard copy photographs and the digital images of your car held on your computer, then select up to three shots and send them to me at info@prewarminor.com (If you have a technical issue in getting your images to me, also drop me an email and we’ll find a way around the problem.)

-
(If the owner of the image rights to the photograph is known, that persons’ permission to use the image must be sought and obtained prior to entry.)
