Chance to ‘click’ your photos for the Daily News

The Daily News, which always has a place for its readers, is welcoming photographs for publication in its news, feature and sports pages.

Be it a complaint like pot-holed roads, garbage dumps, or traffic blocks, to pictures brightening your day like smiling children on their way to school or a busy vegetable market to a photograph that pulls the heartstrings of readers, we welcome them. It can even be an action picture from a sports event.

In fact, the list of topics is endless and if you do happen to ‘click’ a photograph you think it is fit for publication, do send it to us. Who knows, it could be the Page One picture.

Contributions for our Lassana Sri Lanka column are overflowing from all parts of the island.

Likewise, we believe that we will have an overwhelming response from our readers to our new venture. The Daily News which believes in interactive journalism, is of the view that in the end it is the reader whose voice should be heard by decision makers.

The pictures that we publish will be first-hand experiences of our readers, seen through their own eyes and camera lenses.

Printed colour photographs with captions, the sender’s name, contact number, ID number and address should be sent to the Daily News, Associated Newspapers of Ceylon Ltd, Lake House, Colombo. Please state at the top left hand corner of the envelope ‘News Pictures’. Photographs can also be e-mailed to [email protected] in JPEG format (200dpi).
