Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ

We want to see Tyneside and Northumberland through your eyes - to share the hidden places that you love and the little moments of beauty that catch your eye.

We're asking anyone with a digital camera to send in their photos of the region.

We'll be featuring many of them in a series of themed galleries on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Tyne during 2009.

King Edward's Bay by Ken Cowins

Current themes

We are currently looking for photos with these themes:

• Off the beaten track

• Light and shade

• Heritage

We've kept the themes broad so you can interpret them however you want to - don't just think of the obvious.

The aim is for pictures that grab people's attention.

Simply e-mail your photos to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Tyne at:

Don't forget to include your name in the e-mail and tell us a little bit about the photo too - when and where it was taken and who (or what) is in it is a good place to start.

Please also include the title of the theme in the subject box of your e-mail. If we do use your photo we'll let you know where you can see it online.

Happy snapping!
