CAN YOU \u201cFRAME THE FARM?\u201d GODSTONE FARM INVITES CHILDREN TO JOIN IN ITS NEW PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION<\/strong><\/p>\n

For release: immediate<\/strong><\/p>\n

For over 40 years, families have enjoyed visits to the Godstone Farm, capturing special moments with many of our resident animals. But from 1st<\/sup> November, the Godstone Farm is launching a new photography competition for budding snappers. Children are challenged to \u201cframe the farm\u201d by taking photos of their favourite furry friends between 1st<\/sup> November and 30th January 2022. A short list of winners will be showcased via a virtual gallery on the Godstone Farm website, and the winning photographer will receive a 1:1 photography lesson with the acclaimed wildlife photographer, Tom Sullam \u2013 director and judge of the Comedy Wildlife Photography awards<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Nicola Henderson, CEO at Godstone Farm comments:<\/strong> \u201cWe\u2019ve all got cameras in our hands these days and even some of our youngest children are pretty savvy at spotting a great shot! So, we\u2019re inviting kids to get snapping their favourite animal on the farm. Entries can either be posted on a parent\u2019s Instagram or Facebook by tagging us and using the hashtag #framethefarm or email us via havefun@godstonefarm.co.uk<\/a> with the subject line, Frame the Farm.\u201d<\/p>\n

Henderson added:<\/strong> \u201cEach year we receive literally thousands of tags on our social media channels of a day well-spent at the farm, so it seemed only right to recognise the gems of photos that get captured, often whilst the team is busy across our 45 acres of farmland.\u201d<\/p>\n

Frame the Farm competition judge and photographer, Tom Sullam comments: <\/strong>\u201cThere\u2019s so much pleasure to be had from capturing special moments we see from the animals on the farm.\u00a0 By observing, watching and waiting, it can be a fantastic way to build empathy in our kids, to help them realise how alike we really are with our animal friends. Capturing that moment on camera, can help us share our enjoyment of nature and take the time to recognise its value. Once we have opened their eyes, we can expand their understanding of the natural world and encourage them to share our enjoyment of nature and its value.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t wait to spend some time with the winning family \u2013 to share my tips and tricks for capturing a funny, endearing or heart-warming moment on the farm.\u201d<\/p>\n
