Put Fife in the picture and win great prizes

Is it our stunning coastline? Or one of its beautiful parks?

Or perhaps a magical moment from an event staged in the Kingdom?

That’s the challenge we are setting readers in a fantastic new competition ‘My Fife, My Town.’

It’s open to all photographers and you can use anything from your smart phone to state-of-the-art kit.

Your mission is simple – submit a picture which, in your mind, sums up Fife and tell us why.

Pick up your camera and choose the location, scene, or landmark that best sums up your town or village – the only caveat is it MUST be in the Kingdom.

Our panel of judges will then pick the very best which we will publish and invite our readers to help pick the overall winners. There is a maximum of three photo entries per person.

The winner of the best photo will win an overnight stay for two people at The Fairmont Hotel in St Andrews.

We have a fantastic first prize for the best photo – an overnight stay for two, (which includes breakfast and use of the spa facilities), at the five star Fairmont Hotel in St Andrews.

And the winner will have their special photo framed by Sproson Gallery and Framer in St Andrews.

The runner-up will also have their photograph framed and win a meal for two people at The Woodside Hotel in Aberdour. The third prize winner will have their photograph framed.

Look out for entries being showcased on our website at www.fifetoday.co.uk and on social media platforms, as well as across our newspapers – the Fife Free Press, Glenrothes Gazette, East Fife Mail, Fife Herald and St Andrews Citizen. Deadline for entries is Friday, August 10, 2018.

The winner will stay in a Fairmont View Guestroom for two people inclusive of breakfast in the Squire restaurant.
