The British Geophysical Association is a Joint Association of the Geological Society of London and the Royal Astronomical Society.
The aims of the British Geophysical Association are to promote the subject of geophysics, and particularly to strengthen the relationship between geology and geophysics in the UK, by holding meetings and courses, by encouraging the publication of the results of research, and by such other means as are deemed appropriate to an Association by the parent Societies

**BRITISH GEOPHYSICAL ASSOCIATION IMAGE COMPETITION - 2012**
Enter the British Geophysical Association image competition and help promote UK geophysics. The top prize is £200 and a 1-year membership of one of the BGA parent societies, the Royal Astronomical Society or the Geological Society of London. Runner-up prize is a 1-year membership of one of the parent societies.
Geophysics is the application of physics to study the Earth, oceans, atmosphere and near-Earth space. It is a broad subject that straddles many of the major sciences - physics, planetary science, geology, environmental science, oceanography, and meteorology. A diverse range of scientists call themselves geophysicists, including seismologists, meteorologists, glaciologists, geomagnetists and geodesists.
We are looking for dramatic fieldwork photos, spectacular images of numerical simulations, stimulating laboratory photos, or any other image that is clearly of a geophysical nature.
Images must be in JPEG or JPG format. Only e-mail entries will be eligible.
Entrants must consent to the BGA using their image for promotional purposes, free of charge.
Please submit images by e-mail to

CLOSING DATE: The competition closes at midnight on the 31 August, 2012 and judging will take place at the BGA Postgraduate Research in Progress Meeting in Leeds on the 6th-7th September 2012.
Winners will be announced on BGA web site and prizes will be presented at the BGA Annual General Meeting in February, 2013.
Please bring this competition and the Postgraduate meeting to the attention of your colleagues, PostDocs and PhD students.
