MDL Marinas love to see photographs taken of their superyacht marinas, being enjoyed through the eyes of MDL customers as well as visitors. For the fifth consecutive year, the company is holding their annual Photography Competition to find MDL’s 2013 Photographer of the Year, as well as MDL’s 2013 Junior Photographer of the Year for the under-16s.

The competition is open to both amateur and professional photographers alike, whether you’ve entered before or are submitting an image for the very first time.

The competition is open for entries from today, with photographers able to submit their chosen images via an online form on the MDL website or by post. MDL have got three categories open for entry from which the overall winner will be chosen for both the main and under-16s competition, which are:

My MDL Marina
Capture what really makes your days at the marina special. Last year MDL received some stunning landscape and sunset shots, so for 2013 MDL would love to see more fast-paced action shots, images illustrating people enjoying the marinas and quirky or artistic compositions – feel free to be as creative as you like!

Me and My Boat
MDL want to see fantastic photographs of you enjoying your boat, from a day enjoying the sunshine, to experiencing an exhilarating race or enjoying watersports activities in the summer weather.

Fun at 40!
MDL Marinas are celebrating their 40th anniversary this year, with a new category perfect for all those creative thinkers out there!  MDL would like photographs taken at or around the marina to incorporate the number 40. This could be you enjoying an MDL 40th anniversary berth holders party or even snaps from your own 40th celebrations, or everyday objects arranged to form the number – if it has 40 in it somewhere, or somehow, it’s perfect for this category. Remember, the only limit is your imagination!

For the first time, berth holders and other members of MDL’s online community will be able to vote for their favourite shots via the MDL Marinas Facebook page, giving you the power to pick the eventual winner. The winning shots are set to be revealed at September’s PSP Southampton Boat Show. As well as having their work displayed on MDL’s Waterside Pavilion at the show, winning entrants will also be in the running to win some great prizes with the overall winner of each category receiving a brand new GoPro HERO3 camera.

The runner-up in the adult competition will receive a bottle of champagne, with iTunes vouchers for the under-16s, and all winners will also receive a pair of tickets to the show to see their work on display. Selected images may also be used in MDL’s marketing materials.

The competition entry closes at midnight on Sunday 11th August 2013, so grab your camera and get snapping!
