Plantastic!
This competition is now closed to entries - the winner will be announced soon!
__
With the long-awaited arrival of spring and summer we want to celebrate the exciting interactive exhibition Plantastic! at World Museum by creating an online Flickr garden, made up of your photos of wildlife you find in your back yard, street, allotment, or anywhere where you come across something wild, weird or wonderful.
It can be something you've seen in your local park, something exotic you've been growing on a windowsill, an urban fox you've spied near your home, or even a potato that looks like that bloke off the telly...! We want as wide a variety of wildlife as possible to reflect the biodiversity of the natural world - see the Explore! links at the bottom of the page for places to go in your area.
How to enter
Submit your entries with a caption to Your Plantastic! garden on Flickr by 31 August 2010 and be in with a chance of winning a month's supply of organic veg bags delivered to your door*, courtesy of Windmill Organic Wholefoods of Smithdown Road.
On 1 September we'll be choosing our favourite image, the author of which will win those lovely veg bags. The categories are really broad - a daisy growing from the pavement at sunset is as captivating to us as a classic English rose, and as for what other weird and wonderful wildlife there is out there... we'll let you decide what to enter!
Competition rules
There is no age limit or limits on the number of entries. All entries must be added to the group by 1 September 2010. By adding your photo to the group you consent to it possibly being used on the National Museums Liverpool blog or website in features related to this competition. Any photos used will be credited to the photographer with a link to their Flickr photostream. National Museums Liverpool will not use photos submitted to this group for any other purpose unless we contact you first.
*A month's supply is four 4kg veg bags over four consecutive weeks. Delivery is only available within the Liverpool area: prize may still be claimed in person from Windmill Wholefoods if the recipient lives outside of this area
