Capture Manchester Launched!
Redeye's major competition with £5000 in prizes!

Redeye The Photography Network is delighted to announce the launch of Capture Manchester, a brand new competition sponsored by law firm DLA Piper with £5000 in prizes. There are ten prizes of £500 on offer for the best new images of Manchester (UK).
The winners will be produced as postcards and larger prints, and all of the entries (providing they are legal and decent) will be exhibited at postcard size at CUBE Gallery in Manchester alongside the judges? choice of the first nine of the winning entries. There will also be the opportunity to vote for the People's Choice at the gallery for one final prize.
Winning entries will be reproduced as postcards that will be available throughout the city and beyond. Each winning image will be produced as a larger print as well as a postcard, so the image must work at both small and large scale.
