Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester is challenging local photographers to capture images that showcase why they love our region for his 2025 calendar.
The local MP is running his popular calendar photography competition again this year with prizes for the best entries.
“Late winter and early spring are both wonderful times in our region, and it is a great chance to get out with your camera and capture some of our region’s beauty,” Mr Chester said.
“This year’s theme of ‘Love where we live’ is a fantastic opportunity to showcase the diversity of the region.
“Whether it’s the coastline, rivers, lakes, mountains or a special building in a town you love, the theme is open to interpretation, and I’m expecting some fantastic entries again this year.
“I encourage photographers to submit their entries by October 4 to be considered for the calendar.”
More than 25,000 free copies of Mr Chester’s #lovegippsland calendar will be available across Gippsland at the end of this year.
The best three entries will receive a hamper of local products, and 13 photographs will be chosen to appear in the calendar (including the front cover).
To enter the #lovegippsland calendar competition, photos must be a minimum size of 4MB to a maximum of 10MB.
Entries close at 5pm on Friday, October 4, 2024. Maximum two entries per person.
If photos are selected for inclusion in the calendar, they must be available in a resolution of greater than 4MB at 300DPI.
Photos should be landscape-oriented as per the calendar’s shape.
Entrants need to provide their name, hometown and contact details, plus a caption for their photo.
