Do you have to be an immigrant to enter, or are migrants also welcome?

I didn't see anything to indicate it was immigrants only.. surely an immigrant organisation would not set out to exclude anyone, locals or blowins?

I was walking across Hyde Bridge this morning and saw a man with a massive camera,one of those professional looking ones and thought to myself if he was on boards and had seen this thread and if he was going to enter the competition.

I'd love to have a go at it but I obnly have a pretty basic digital camera,not one of those fancy ones:(

It's not what you've got it's how you use it:p
Thats a fact because my daughter won a competition last year using a very basic camera.

What made me think it was for immigrants only was the bit in the Weekender last week about it....I'll try and find a link.

Couldn't find it on the weekender site, but found it here:

Dont look now but..........:eek: Rare enough breed here alright but if you have a high tech camera you might still be able to catch. Maybe thats what yer man with the long lens on the bridge was shooting.
