How do I enter the competition?

**Entry deadline this month extended to Monday, 2nd February**

During January, you can post up to two entries; one for each of two featured gods. Two ancient Greek gods are featured this month: Hephaestus and Zeus.

This month's themes

Hephaestus is the god of fire and is also associated with blacksmiths. So to enter a photo based on the theme of Hephaestus, fire, heat and metal work are ideal subjects.

Zeus was arguably the most powerful and significant of all the ancient Greek gods. Zeus was the supreme leader of the Olympian gods and was often regarded as a peace maker. But Zeus is most often associated as a god of the weatfher and, especially, thunderstorms. Any photos that can relate to the subject of the weather would be ideal.

Just follow these 3 simple steps:

1. Find the location of your nearest Olympus Photo Imaging Expert (PIX) dealer. This is easy - just click here to get to the PIX site which has a national dealer guide.

2. Choose or create a picture to submit. The competition is very loosely themed on ancient Greek Gods. See above for this months themes.

3. Send us your entry! You can do this via olympus.competition@dpnow.com

Your picture can be either a JPEG or TIFF image up to 1MB in file size. If you aren't sure how to format your picture for email, contact us via the same address for some advice.

Don't forget to include the name of your nearest PIX dealer, plus a simple sentence about how your picture relates to the Greek God you have based your picture's theme on.

And that's it!

If you win one of the £500 monthly competitions being run until September 2004, your entry will go head to head with the other 11 monthly winners to compete for the grand prize of that £2,000 holiday in Greece.
