We are celebrating the beauty of Oxford and want you to send us your digital photos of the city. You can take pictures of anything you like as long as they are taken within the city boundaries. We are looking to liven up our website with your photos. Please be aware that if a recognisable person who is not in a public space appears in your photograph, you will need them to fill in and send us a Photographic Consent Form at the bottom of this page before it can be displayed on our website. We will need the photos to be in a high definition JPG file and no more than 2MB in size.

What shall I take pictures of?

Take a picture of the sun setting over Port Meadow on a clear evening, one of the magnificent architectural landmarks in the centre of Oxford, the natural beauty of the plants and wildlife in one of our parks or something completely different. Be creative - it's really up to you.

How do I submit a photo?
