Autumn Science Photograph Competition Results.
Thank you again for your fabulous entries.
‘Villager Jim’ kindly judged our competition. He was very impressed with the quality and content of the photo entrants and insisted on a ‘highly commended’ category.
Villager Jim lives and photographs in the Peak District. In 2012 he won a BBC Springwatch competition with a wonderful starlings picture chosen from 50,000 entries. He also won the British Wildlife Photography Awards 2013/2014, followed by Press Photo of the Year 2015 and 2016, then appeared on the BBC Countryfile show.
The man behind the lens
“Photography is a way of life to me. I’m out in all weathers…wind, rain, fog, snow from dawn to dusk, chasing that one breath-taking shot that never fails to astound, delight and mesmerise me. I’m fishing for a catch rather than going on a fixed mission.
My favourite place in the world is the beautiful Peak District, where I live, work and play. Nowhere else captures the changing of the seasons, the gentle curtain falling between day and night, the beautiful partnership of nature and wildlife, water and woods, hill and valley, movement and stillness.” (Villager Jim)
