THE BRIEF

EVERYDAY DELIGHT might be something to be enjoyed between the rise and set of the sun, it’s a prompt to look for joy, to appreciate the little things – flowers growing through cracked pavements, cake crumbs on a plate, rippled shadows, low sun through high trees, accidental colour schemes in the street, raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens… hang on!

Interpret the title in your own way, and share what brings you joy.

We’re inviting you to enter up to 5 images to be printed on punchy and democratic newspaper print from Newspaper Club. To make the most of the available space ALL images must be landscape format and be provided as such.
