bbcarabic.com has marked the beginning of the Muslim festival of Ramadan with a photographic competition.

Both professional and amateur photographers are invited to submit photographs that capture the 'shape colour and feel' of the month of Ramadan.

The BBC Arabic team will select the finalist, and site users will chose a winner to receive a laptop computer. The closing date for entries is 10 November.

"Many of our audiences around the world celebrate the month of Ramadan," said Mohamed Yehia, editor of bbcarabic.com.

"This competition is a great opportunity to connect with our audiences and for them to see, share and experience the Ramadan festivities."
