I was very pleased this week to officially announce the winner and runners up in our
2015 photography competition. Many fantastic entries were sent in, covering the theme of 'moorland and wildlife'.
A
shortlist of 25 was narrowed down to 1 overall winner and 5 runners up.
The winning image was the beautiful photo below: Malcolm Mee's shot of a
short-eared owl which has momentarily perched on a moorland fence
post.

As Malcolm explained; he had been visiting the same spot for about 4 years to watch these daytime hunting owls, and finally (from his car) he snapped this suberb photo. The judges, Kate MacRae (
Wildlife Kate) and
Paul Hobson praised the golden light, and the use of the background moorland which put the owl into context with its landscape.
