Summer – Online competition 14

The latest round of our just for fun Lockdown competitions has come to an end. The theme was ‘summer’. Voting was fairly close to begin with and then one image began to edge ahead. Could it be caught?

During the last couple of hours of voting two photographs began to snap at the early leaders’ heels but as time ran out that image stayed in first place, cementing victory by one point. The two pursuers finishing tied in second place.

Congratulations go to Gavin Brand for his photograph ‘Wish I Was Here’. This is also Gavin’s first time on the top step of the podium, making him the sixth different person to win one of these competitions.
