Newcastle Photography Competition – Open for Entries

Sharon Claydon MP for the Federal seat of Newcastle is running a photography competition in 2021. You can find out the details by going to her website. Just like any photographic competition it pays to read the Conditions of Entry because you can only enter if you are a resident of the Newcastle electorate. Good luck to those who can enter.
