Coming up in February 2009 is another opportunity on the blog to capture and share the colour and flavour of the annual Lantern Festival and Chinese New Year. LANTERN is a festival event of themed work selected from an open public submission process for public exhibition. The Auckland Festival of Photography asks for entries from photographers for presentation on the Auckland Photo Blog in February (http://www.photographyfestival.org.nz/photo-blog/index.cfm) and some of the best will be at a June 2009 exhibition.

The exhibition will display selected images/photographs that best reflect the uniqueness and humanity of the Lantern Festival. The people, faces and places in this popular three-day cultural summer celebration of Auckland's diverse Asian community.

Lantern is sponsored by ASIA NZ Foundation. The best photo of the month for February will win a Gravity pack of select coffees and a Lantern prize pack - a double pass to SKYCITY Cinema Asia and a Cullmann 49999 Piccolino Mini tripod.

The festival runs the Auckland Photo Blog as a online community digital photography tool.
