What does Essex look like through your eyes? 📸
Every day in Essex tells a story. From dramatic coastlines and rolling countryside to bustling market towns, local events and the people who bring our communities to life, we're looking for photographs that capture what makes our county special.
This summer, take your camera with you. Explore somewhere new. Revisit a favourite place. Capture a moment that makes you stop and look twice.
Whether it's a stunning sunrise, a family day out, a hidden gem, a thriving local business, or a moment of community spirit, we want to see Essex through your lens.
Share your photograph as part of the Photography Competition and enter one of our three themes:
See It: Landscapes, landmarks, heritage, wildlife and scenery.
Do It: Activities, events, attractions, local businesses and experiences.
Feel It: Community spirit, culture, creativity and the moments that capture the character of Essex.
So next time you're out and about, keep your eyes open. The perfect photo could be waiting just around the corner.
To enter the competition, share your pictures on social media using for your chance to win some great prizes and be part of a photography exhibition.
