The brand launched the competition in August looking for keen photographers: professionals, amateurs and novices alike to send in the snaps of their camping trips or them generally enjoying the great outdoors either alone or with family and friends.

Originally Vango intended to choose the overall winner themselves but Creative Manager, Scott Beveridge explains that this was not possible: “When looking through the photographs we were extremely surprised at the high quality of the images and simply found it too difficult to choose an overall winner so we decided to put it to the public vote, after all it is the public’s opinion which matters the most.”

“We have chosen our top 7 images: the photographers of all of these will receive prizes and will see their photographs used in our marketing material in 2010. The photograph with the most votes will get used as the premier background image for our new website launching in 2010 and the photographer will feature in our new online magazine when it is launched.”

The voting is now open and will remain open until Monday 30^th November.
