Federal Member for Nicholls Sam Birrell is inviting photographers of all ages, whether established, amateur or aspiring, to enter.
Named the Places of Nicholls Calendar, the 2026 edition sets out to showcase the essence of the community, highlighting the people, places and stories that make the region special.
“This calendar is a fantastic opportunity to shine a spotlight on our beautiful region,” Mr Birrell said.
“It will feature photos taken by locals that showcase the people, products, places, characters, culture and charm that define our electorate.
“Think local towns, streets, community groups, farms, weather events, letterboxes, pets, animals, dams, rivers, tourist spots, homes, sporting clubs — anything that reflects life in Nicholls.”
The top 12 photos, selected by Mr Birrell, will be featured in the calendar with full credit.
The image chosen for the front cover will receive a $200 gift voucher to a Goulburn Valley photography store of the winner’s choice.
The photos must adhere to guidelines, including:
- Be in landscape orientation;
- Be in colour or black-and-white;
- Be titled or named;
- May be lightly edited; and,
- Can be taken on mobile phones.
Thousands of calendars will be printed and distributed via local newspapers in early December.
Entries close on Wednesday, October 29, and can be submitted via email at sam.birrell.mp@aph.gov.au or dropped off in person at Mr Birrell’s office at 426 Wyndham St, Shepparton.
