AMATEUR and professional photographers have just weeks left to enter a national competition showcasing images of the sea.

Run by the national maritime charity, the Shipwrecked Mariners' Society, the competition calls for photographs that best show Britain's enduring connection with the sea, maritime heritage and seafarers.

The winner will scoop £500 of photographic equipment vouchers.

To enter, by August 26, visit shipwreckedmariners.org.uk or the society’s Facebook or Twitter pages.
