A GWENT photographer could put you in his new artwork, which is set to be housed at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium.

Steve Pope, from Heol Glaslyn, Caldicot, is collecting 30,000 photos to create a 12ft wide by 8ft high mosaic.

Anybody can email him a digital photo to be used in the bill-board sized mosaic, which will be put on permanent display at the stadium.

"I particularly want photos of people at the stadium, at matches, or concerts perhaps," he said.

"But any photo which means something to the person who submits it can be used. Perhaps a wedding or a family celebration.

"I want to create something everyone who uses the stadium and has ties to it can be involved in."

As images are emailed to Mr Pope they will be added to the mosaic and the artwork's progress can be followed online.

Messages can also be attached to the photos and these can be read online.The images will each be a couple of inches across.

Mr Pope said: "It will be an opportunity for people to have a permanent link to the artwork, with their pictures preserved for posterity."

This is the first major artwork created by Mr Pope, who is the official photographer for Newport's Celtic Manor.

To pay for the artwork's creation there is a charge of £2 for each photo submitted.

Half of the money collected will be given to the Ty Hafan Children's Hospice in Penarth.

Mr Pope aims to raise £30,000 for the hospice and said he has seen at first hand the good work it does.
