The annual competition was held at Cornwall Wildlife Trust headquarters in Allet on a damp November evening, with great attendance from members of the group.

Chris Robins took on the task of judging the competition and did a brilliant job casting his expert eye over all the entries and whittling it down to eventual winners across all the categories. He also did a great job of presenting on the night, a big thanks to Chris from all involved.  

Photo competition categories were: Birds, Composition & Form, Fauna, and Flora. You can see all the winning images in the gallery below and our thanks to everyone who entered, and who came along on the night. Particular thanks to Becky Curtis for accepting and organising all the entries ready for Chris to judge.
