    I have just learnt about this super competition for amateur photographers to find the British Weather Photographer of the Year

    and as there has been a lot of it about, even in August - drizzle, rain, storms, wind and even some sunshine, there should be no shortage of opportunities for some great shots!

    The glorious 12th!


    To enter the competition, participants must submit their photos capturing British weather to the Lloyds TSB website. The overall winner will be picked on the basis of flair, technique and originality. The entries will be judged by a leading panel of meteorologists and photographers.

    A chance for amateurs to shine. As proud sponsors of Channel 4 Weather, Lloyds TSB created this competition to find the best amateur photographer of the British elements.


    Judged by top professionals and experts in the field of photography and weather, 12 finalists will be chosen for the flair, technique and originality they use in capturing British weather.

    All visitors to this site can vote for their favourite photographs, and each week the one with the most votes wins £100.

    The photos taken by the 12 lucky finalists will be put in a public exhibition for a week before the overall winner of £10,000 is announced.
