Photographers have captured the stunning landscape, wildlife and structures of Suffolk’s most southerly point in an annual event.
The photographic competition attracted 68 entries over three categories – Macro, Wildlife and Photographs at Landguard, Felixstowe, that make you go ‘Wow’ – and more than 1,500 people, a record, voted on the Discover Landguard website for their favourite.
The top four photographs in each category were then put before a panel of judges, who then selected the overall Judges Choice winner – this year going to Philip J Hill, whose picture was taken on the Landguard Nature Reserve for the Wildlife category and wins him £50 to put towards photographic equipment.
Stephen Rampley, Landguard marketing and events co-ordinator said the competition had “attracted a fabulous variety of photographs which capture the unique attractions and atmosphere of the Landguard peninsula”.
He added: “ We would like to congratulate Philip on his winning entry, and thank everyone who took the time to enter their great photographs.”
A special presentation evening for the twelve winners will be held at Felixstowe Town Hall in early November, where the Mayor of Felixstowe, Nick Barber will present each winner with an enlarged print of their photograph.
