Update
Well, we're four weeks in to the competition now, and it's really going well. we've all been very impressed with the way that the competitors have been interpreting the subjects, and we've had some cracking pictures back. Here's a few to give you an idea of what has been going on.

Cameras
You can use any camera that you want, but if you do not own your own digital camera, we have five rather nice Panasonic digital compact cameras that are available for use by competitors. They're very easy to use, with a large screen on the back and image stabilisation, which makes them suitable for people who might struggle with more complicated cameras, and allows them to concentrate on the creative side of the competition.
Rules
These rules have been adapted (and simplified) from Cardiff photo-marathon's rules:
1. The competition is an entirely digital event. You can take part with a digital camera or mobile phone.
2. You must capture 6 images on 6 given topics, in the same order that the topics appear on the list given to you. You can delete a photo on the memory card before you continue to the next topic. Images must be in the order the items are listed in on the topics list. i.e This means that topic 1 is first on the memory card, followed by topic 2, 3, 4 etc.
3. All images must be taken on the same camera.
4. You are free to use flashguns, filters and tripods.
5. You are not permitted to edit the images, use any image-processing programs or use images that are not taken during the day. Any manipulation (or suspected manipulation) of the image metadata will cause the entry to be disqualified.
6. Only memory cards with 6 images on them will be eligible for downloading. You are not permitted to have more than 6 images on your card at the end of the day.
7. You must collect the topics at the allotted times from Parkview Cafe.
