Bath & North East Somerset Council belongs to a network called the Organisation of World Heritage Cities (OWHC).
The OWHC is running an amateur photographic competition for member cities, with a € 500 first prize.
Photos must depict a characteristic view of Bath, including the letters OWHC displayed in a creative manner. The competition is open now and closes 31st July 2013. The winning photo goes forward to compete with winners from other European cities.
Councillor Ben Stevens (Lib-Dem, Widcombe) Cabinet Member for Sustainable Development said: “There are sweeping views across Bath and all sorts of historic sights to see, so anyone who enters this competition from our area has a great chance of winning. Our creative communities and photogenic city are a perfect blend for this challenge.”
Entrants should register using an online form at www.ovpm.org/en/literally_owhc which also contains full competition details.
