PRIZE

Canadian winters are brutal. Bone chilling winds amplify the misery of ice and snow freezing everything outside; sometimes just getting into your house takes ten minutes. And of course it's half an hour before the space is warm enough that you can unzip your jacket. When it's cold outside in Canada, keeping yourself or a house warm is a big job, and so it's with some satisfaction that we organized a Fire and Ice photo challenge.

Photographers, here's your chance to show off your 'fire photography' work as long as the subject has been captured in winter conditions. Show us bonfires blazing in the sunset of a frozen lake, or boilers melting icicles in damp basements. How about cooking fires burning brushwood and melting snow beside ice fishing huts? Or torches illuminating pond hockey rinks? Yes, even candles held aloft at a Christmas service would qualify as Fire and Ice.

The Prize is a GeoAir PCO air purifier that uses ultraviolet light to clean and purify the breathable atmosphere of your home. Courtesy of an Ontario based geothermal installation company, the unusual reward item has a retail value approx $700
