British Landmarks photo competition

Ecoffins produces a desk calendar every year for their clients, who are mainly Funeral Directors. The calendar gets distributed throughout the country and is displayed in many of the UK’s 6000+ Funeral homes. This year’s theme is “British Landmarks” and Ecoffins is looking for 12 images, one for each month. The images should display a well-known British landmark, perhaps an iconic landscape, a remarkable building or a popular tourist destination. Due to the sensitive environment in which this calendar will be used, Ecoffins is looking for images that reflect the beauty of British landmarks in a positive, memorable and calm way.
