THE Comet can reveal today (Thursday) the winning photos which will fill a town’s 2012 calendar.

Amateur photographic competition Picture This, organised by the Letchworth Garden City Tourist Information Centre in association with The Comet, was set up to find the best 13 photos of Letchworth GC.

A panel of judges picked out their favourite 12 snaps, with the 13th and final shot - Willian Pond by Jon Morris-Smith - making the cut after gaining 29 per cent of the vote from Comet readers.

“I’m absolutely delighted with the response we have had to our amateur photographic competition,” said Heather McLaughlin, tourist information centre manager.

“We’ve had a superb selection of landscapes, buildings and photos capturing what Letchworth means to the people who live, work and play here. Thank you to everyone who entered and to the readers of The Comet for helping to select our final winning photograph.”

The other 12 winning photos were: Winter frost, Broadway Gardens by Brian Hollis; A Common View by Gary Belcher; Norton Pond by Ginge Hopkins; Museum Dreaming by Sigi Dlabal; Wilbury Hills by Warren Price; Garden City Greenway by David Moult; St Nicholas Church, Norton by Mike Alcock; From Leys Avenue by Robert Staddon; Wilbury Pines by Brian Sawford; Moody skies over Broadway by Chris Pieri; Moon over Broadway Cinema by Graham Dollman and Christmas Eve by Robert Zmudzki.

The 2012 Letchworth Garden City calendar will be available in September from the tourist information centre on Station Road, Letchworth GC.
