A photographic competition is being held in Bromyard to find 12 pictures for the town's 2006 calendar.

People are invited to submit up to six snaps featuring local places, people, traditions or animals.

Every pictured entered will feature in an exhibition at Warren Farm in October.

Mary Seldon, from event sponsor Bromyard Post Office, said: "We wanted to celebrate local people and things and thought this would be good fun."

The competition is open to amateur photographers living in Herefordshire or Worcestershire.

Photographs must have been taken in the Bromyard area between September 2004 and August 2005.

The entry fee is £2.50 and the closing date is August 31. Details are available from Bromyard Post Office.
