Mini Festive Photomarathon Sheffield

Join in Photomarathon Sheffield's mini festive photo challenge!

The festive period is going to be very different this year. Whether you’re spending it by yourself or with your loved ones, we’d like to invite you to amuse or distract yourself with a little photography fun.

How to enter:
Pick any of the three topics from the list below (you can enter all three if you like, but with no more than one photo for each topic).

Take a photo inspired by the topic on your phone or camera.

Email it to hello@ourfaveplaces.co.uk or post it on Instagram with the tag #PhotomarathonSHF (make sure your Instagram isn’t set to private!).

Entries close at 11pm on Sunday 3 January.

Photo topics:
1. Christmas
2. Joy
3. Hope

We hope these three photo prompts will encourage you to document some moments of laughter or catharsis at the end of a difficult year.

There’ll be one winner for each topic, who’ll receive a copy of the brand new Photomarathon Sheffield book.

We’ll announce the three winners in early January.

Have fun, and good luck!
