Thank you to Carol D for letting me know about this competition.
Opened 1 January 2007
Closed 30 June 2007
The Snowden Group is a mining consultancy company and not surprisingly, this photographic competition is all about the mining industry. If you work in the industry, or just happen to be passing by a mine with your camera, it's worth taking a shot because first prize is $10,000.
All photos entered in the competition will be displayed online. You can vote for the people's choice photo from 16 July.
Last year's winners are stunning photographs. Have a look at: http://snowdengroup.com/PhotoComp.asp?CID=239&BID=383
