Andante Travels

Capture the Past in Photos, and you could win a fabulous Canon EOS 500D, and other prizes for the 3 runners-up

We are proud to launch our Archaeological Photography Award.  Your photographs will help to record the present day state of sites for future generations as we build up an archive of photos from all over the world.

We have been taking people on journeys through the ancient world for 25 years; introducing, engaging and interesting them in the story of mankind as told by the things they left behind. We have already built up an impressive collection of images taken by our own staff and by the talented photographers amongst our guests. Now we want to extend this and attract photos from everywhere - even sites we do not yet visit, and from everyone - whether they have travelled with us yet or not.

PRIZES
The overall winner for best picture will receive a

fabulous Canon EOS 500D digital SLR, the best in its class.  
There will be other prizes worth around £100 each for the winners of each remaining category, sponsored by Oxbow Books and the Council for British Archaeology.
