Capture The Best Of The Isle Of Wight With Red Funnel
Ever fancied yourself as a bit of a dab hand with a camera? An aspiring David Bailey perhaps? Well now is the chance to show off your skills by capturing some of the best sights the Isle of Wight has to offer – and win some fantastic prices as well. The‘Your Isle of Wight’ video and photography competition is looking for some of your best shots of this beautiful destination, and will be running from August to December.
There are so many great sights to be found in the Isle of Wight, making it difficult to decide what you want to photograph next. If you’re struggling for inspiration, check out this list of some of the top attractions that the Isle of Wight has to offer:
Isle of Wight Steam Railway
A great attraction for the whole family that takes in some fantastic sights along the way. This classic train goes from Wooton to Smallbrook Junction and through Havenstreet and Ashley along the way. There are also spots for camping and caravanning nearby for that authentic British holiday experience!
Osborne House East Cowes
Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were known to frequent this stunning English Heritage-maintained building. Make a visit to the Swiss play cottage and Victorian walled garden for some great photo opportunities, as well as excellent tours.
Compton Bay Beach
Compton Bay is home to one of the UK’s most scenic beaches.With towering cliffs that go on for as far as the eye can see and a gorgeous coastline, this sandy beach is a real sight to behold. The beach is a great bathing spot and never gets too crowded, making it perfect for those lazy summer days.
Carisbrooke Castle
This is one of the must-visit sights on the island. King Charles was imprisoned here, while Princess Beatrice, daughter of Queen Victoria also lived here at one point. Take one of the fascinating tours where you can learn more about its history and witness the infamous donkeys working the well in the Medieval Wellhouse.
Ventnor Botanic Gardens
This is a fantastic shooting spot with beautiful floral displays and even exotic plants from around the world. Another beauty spot nearby is the charming Steephill Cove. The best part is, entrance is free!
The Model Village, Godshill
A model village is always a great photo opportunity, and Godshill is one of the best.This picturesque village is the perfect place to unwind and relax with a coffee and watch the world go by. If you feel a bit more adventurous, you can also try your hand at some leaf picking in the tea gardens nearby.
There are four categories for the photo competition; lifestyle, nature, constructed and juniors. Monthly winners in each category will win return travel to the Isle of Wight for a car and four passengers, and in December 2010 the overall winners will be announced in the final prize draw and can look forward to receiving 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes of London Camera Exchange vouchers worth £700, £200 and £100 respectively. The video competition is split into two categories, adult and junior, and entrants should compose a two to five minute video about anything on the Island, whether it is a favourite cycle path, places to hit the waves or simply a fantastic place for some local food. There is a fantastic £1,000 London Camera Exchange voucher on offer for the overall winner, while category winners will receive a £250 Red Funnel Travel Card.
You will need to make it down to the Isle of Wight to take the pictures though, and Red Funnel can get you there faster than you can say snap!Vehicles depart from the Southampton docks, which are both in reach of the M3 and M27. Return fares for a car of up to 6 people start from just £34. To enter, for full conditions and for more information about the competition visit www.redfunnel.co.uk.
