Hi All,

I wanted to let you know about the Renaissance Photography Prize 2010. www.renaissancephotography.org

The Renaissance Photography Prize launched on 11 October 2009. Now in its third year, the competition invites photographers, both amateur and professional, to have their photographs judged by some of the most acclaimed photographers in the industry. All proceeds from the competition go to The Lavender Trust at Breast Cancer Care, a charity which helps younger women affected by breast cancer. Photographers can enter at www.renaissancephotography.org

Renowned gallery owner Michael Hoppen, former Guardian picture editor Eamonn McCabe, landscape expert Charlie Waite and Magnum Magnum editor Brigitte Lardinois will award over £5,000 in prizes to the winners in this year’s categories: (Landscapes, People, Movement, Reflections) and the overall Renaissance prize. These images, plus 75 shortlisted images, will be displayed at a 2 day exhibition in central London and at a celebrity Private View at the exclusive Hospital Private Members Club in Covent Garden. They will also appear in a hardback book of the event.
