2015: Photo of the Year!

Congratulations to Ashley Buttle who wins last years photo of the year competition, being selected out of the 12 photos of the month to be our overall winner and win a photographic voucher to be used on one of our photo days here!

Ashley's charming photograph was selected from the 12 by professional wildlife photographer Heather Angel. Heather is a renowned wildlife photographer, having won many awards in Britain and abroad. She selected Ashley's photograph stating:

"The photographer has not only captured a touching moment but also one rarely seen between two different sized mammals. Unique is often miss-used, but in this case it may well be an unique capture of a red squirrel happily continuing to feed whilst a muntjac nuzzles it. Congratulations to Ashley Buttle."

Congratulations indeed to Ashley! Chosen as our February image, it has always stood out as being something a bit special. We look forward to welcoming Ashley here in the future on one of our dedicated photographic days.
