The English based 'Northern Underwater Photography Group' are holding their annual 'Splash-In Underwater Photography Competition' on Saturday 16th July 2016.

The competition will commence at 07:00 and close at 22:00. All images must be taken on the day.

All underwater photographers are welcome to join in the fun whilst diving the Anglesey or North Wales coastline. You can shore dive or boat dive. The choice is yours. It doesn't matter if you have just got your first compact camera and are starting to take photos, or you are a seasoned diver with a beautiful SLR, the NUPG would love to see your photos.

Judging and trophy presentation will take place on Saturday night. At the same time the NUPG will also hold a print competition, showing off some of the best images from the British Isles and overseas. Everyone is welcome to enter.
