British Weather Photographer of the Year
Weather. We talk about it. We moan about it. We live our lives, even in the 21st century, largely at the mercy of it. It never ceases to surprise us, and it can grind our lifestyle to a halt with the merest dusting of snow.
If, like me, you have a camera and an ounce of creativity (and I firmly believe that everyone has at least an ounce), then get yourself outside and take some pictures of British Weather. Why? Well for a start it will give you another excuse to moan about the weather as it probably won't do exactly what you want it to right at the moment you want to take the picture... the wind will blow the daisy, the raindrops will just stop, the sun will create just too much of a glare (OK that's unlikely this summer!) or the dragon you saw in the clouds will change into a blob. But get out there with your camera anyway, exercise your creative muscles and simply enjoy the world around you.
Once you have an image, or images, pop on over to the British Weather Photographer of the Year competition and give yourself the chance to win ten grand. Yep, that's right, half an hour in the outdoors and a couple of minty's on the puter and you might find yourself £10,000 richer courtesy of Lloyds TSB.
