Lydbury North Village Shop: 2022 Calendar Competition

Calling all photographers

The shop committee would like to sell a local 2022 calendar in the shop and encourage village participation in its creation.

Lydbury North amateur photographers; please take pictures of the village, village gardens, beauty spots, wildlife and tamelife, wild and garden flowers, or places within walking distance of Lydbury North (e.g. Bury Ditches, Long Mynd, Oakeley Mynd, Hopesay Hill and nearby villages), Start now because the pictures for each month need to be taken in that month (more or less).

Photos will be submitted in August and one photo will be selected for each month - the prize is the honour of having your photo selected and your name in the calendar. You can submit a maximum of 12 photos (one for every month) or just a few. Photos do not need to have been taken in 2020 or 2021.
