Islamic Relief photo comp…deadline?
Written by David WhiteHere’s a good looking competition…from the Islamic Relief site:
Islamic Relief is celebrating 25 years as one of the UKs leading charities. The charity has been at the forefront of a worldwide charity disaster response, co-ordinated via 27 field offices across the world.
As a celebration of our commitment to humanity we are undertaking a worldwide photo competition. Islamic Relief hopes by organising such an event and endorsing the work not only with its own name but that of 4 prestigious judges from the field of photography it will be able to take part in organising a platform for the world’s talented photographers to show their work.
There will be 4 themes to choose from, allowing photographers to show their creativity in which ever field of photography they prefer. Through their photographs we hope to have a selection of images that will show aspects of the human condition, culture and traditions, landscapes and climate.
There will be numerous prizes to choose from for the accomplished photographer as well as a selection of prizes for a mini world competition for kids to show their skill.
========================================================================================
All good…only thing is, I have no idea when the deadline is, and nor does anyone at Islamic Relief it seems…I have asked for the answer, but it’s not forthcoming……all a bit odd. I imagine at least that they are still open for entries….
If anyone knows when the deadline is please holler.
UPDATE
October the 15th apparently…maybe, probably. Plenty of time to enter.

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in the competition and I’m glad you picked up on this. The page http://www.ir-anniversary.com/competition.php is still under construction with a few vital aspects of the page omitted for no apparently good reason do!:) We are looking at October the 15th for all entries to be submitted so I think this will give everyone enough time to get their photos taken. Keep an eye on the page for any new updates. You can also follow us on twitter @irphotography or twitter about the competition with #ircomp. We also hve a page on Facebook. Hope this is enough to go on – if you have any queries please email us at photoqueries@irworldwide.org . We will keep your details on record if you allow us to do so and will periodically send you emails for any changes, so keep an eye out for those.
Hope to see your photos soon.
Islamic Relief

You may want to have a look at the photoqueries email address…I only ever get bounced responses.
