The Sharow Photographic Competition is a competition for photographers of all levels of ability - excluding full-time professional photographers. We welcome entries from beginners as well as experienced photographers, on digital camera or film. Everyone has an equal opportunity to win in this competition - see testimonials.

We are an independent competition and the only National Open Photographic Competition for Charity

In aid of Martin House Children's Hospice

The chosen charity to be supported in 2010 is Martin House Hospice For Children & Young Adults - Registered Charity No. 517919.

"We are delighted to have the support of the Sharow Photographic Competition again following the success of last year's event. The numbers of entries to the competition resulted in a substantial donation to Martin House and we would like to thank the organizers and all the participants for their contribution to the work of the hospice."
Stuart Andrew - Fundraising Manager, Martin House Children's Hospice.

The competition is divided into Categories. These change every year and have various eligibility criteria. There are prizes in every category and also an overall Best Picture prize and runner-up. Click here for details of this year's categories.

Thanks to your support the Competition is now a prestigious annual event.

The Sharow Competition has quickly blossomed into a ‘tour de force’ and the standard of entries is very high. It has obviously now staked its place in the nation's photographic competition calendar and I hope will go from strength to strength, especially given the fact that you are able to not only provide generous prize money, but also make substantial donations to charity.
