Bandar Seri Begawan - Aspiring photographers have been invited to participate in a competition, with the winner representing Brunei for the Asean Young Photographers Awards 2010 in Singapore.

The Department of Youth and Sports is organising a photography competition for young photographers on Sunday, February 21.

Participants, who must be between 18 and 25 years, are required to take photographic shots encompassing this year's theme of "Sporting Spirit of Asean".

Photographers are required to shoot at several areas surrounding the sports complex in Berakas from 8am until 4pm. Another criteria listed was that participants must only use a digital camera (SLR or compact), for easy downloading of pictures to judges.

Only the first place winner will represent Brunei for the awards in Singapore in August, with all expenses paid by the department.

Prior to the competition, the organising committee has arranged for a briefing session at the Youth Centre in the capital at 7.30am.

Participants outside of Brunei-Muara District will be provided accommodation to stay at the Youth Centre during the competition, depending on availability of rooms.

The closing date of entry is on February 20 before 3pm.
