BSAC launches its #GreatBritishDiving photo competition
BSAC’s #GreatBritishDiving photo competition opened on Friday 15th July and runs throughout the Great British Summer until submissions close on Friday 30th September. Voting will close Friday 7th October. Click here to visit BSAC’s Facebook page and enter.
The BSAC #GreatBritishDiving Photo Competition has been launched to boost British divers’ presence on social media and to show the world just how great British diving really is.
Designed to be a celebration of British diving, the competition calls for both underwater and topside images that capture the spirit of club and British diving.
Entries could be as simple as divers on the surface of the water with huge post-dive smiles, a fabulous wreck site or an exciting marine life encounter. It could be finally getting that perfect photo of a British critter or simply a group of divers out and about doing their thing.
Whatever your subject, it must be in the spirit of #GreatBritishDiving.
To submit photos entrants can either:
- post their picture on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook with the hashtag #GreatBritishDiving – the image will then automatically feed into the gallery on the BSAC Facebook page
- or upload their photo by visiting the entry form on the BSAC Facebook page
Voting
- The winners will be chosen by the public
- All pictures with the hashtag #GreatBritishDiving feed into a gallery which then allows the public to vote on their favourite picture
- Voters must vote for the picture that embraces, and truly shows the spirit of Great British Diving
