In April, Thailand will be celebrating Songkran, or Thai New Year. In places like Chiang Mai, Songkran involves a week-long, all-out water fight. Sounds like fun!

To celebrate Songkran, we have made the theme of our photo competition this month water. If you have any travel pics with a water theme, you can enter for a chance to win. The winner will receive a copy of Lonely Planet's One People: Many Journeys, a 288-page pictorial with beautiful images from across the globe. They'll also win a $50 Amazon voucher from Travellerspoint and have their monthly photo upload limit increased to 200MB. The runner-up will receive the mini version of One People: Many Journeys and an upgraded monthly photo upload limit of 200MB.

Nominations are open until April 13, when members will start voting for the winner.
