Entries open for the 2025 Nicholls Calendar Competition

Wednesday October 2, 2024

Federal Member for Nicholls, Sam Birrell MP, is calling on established, amateur and budding photographers of all ages from across the region to click their cameras and enter a top shot for the annual 2025 Nicholls Calendar. 

The 2025 calendar will focus on all things local and will capture what makes our region special.
Mr Birrell said the calendar is a great opportunity to shine the spotlight our beautiful area.

“The 2024 Nicholls Calendar will feature photos taken by locals that include the people, products,
places, characters, culture and charms that define our electorate,” Mr Birrell said.

“It could be a shot of a local farm, town, street, community group, weather event, post box,
puppy, cow, cat watering hole, tourist destination, building, home, sports club, – the list goes on,”
he said.

The top 12 entries as judged by Mr Birrell will be used in the calendar, with photo credit, while the
photo chosen for the front cover will receive a $200 gift voucher to a Goulburn Valley photography store of their choice.

Pictures should be named and must be in landscape form, and either be in colour or black and
white.

Thousands of copies of the calendar will be printed and will be distributed through local
newspapers in early December.

The photo may be lightly edited, and pictures taken on mobile phones are welcome.
People can submit entries via email to sam.birrell.mp@aph.gov.au or drop them in at Mr Birrell’s
Office at 426 Wyndham Street Shepparton VIC, 3630 by Monday, November 4.
