THE shortlist for West Dunbartonshire Council’s Picture of the Year 2018 has been announced after more than 250 people submitted their photos.

In partnership with West Dunbartonshire Leisure, West College Scotland and Great Scot Photography, the council asked residents to send in photos that showed the beauty of the area, from landscapes to the history and heritage.

The top 10 pictures have now been chosen and the public are being encouraged to vote for their favourite.

To cast your vote, go to instagram.com/wdcouncil/ and “like” the one you think should be in with a chance of winning.

The likes will be counted along with the judging panel votes and the winner, who will receive £300, will be announced on Friday, November 16.
