Paul Duxfield, our competition judge:
"This months was such a tricky choice, with dolphins galore, they're becoming a bit of a regular fixture at Red Sea Dive Safari or so it seems.They’ve clearly got good taste choosing to visit so regularly. Anyway I narrowed it down to two pictures, and whilst the dolphin pictures were great I had two choices in the end, one was Sarah Lee’s beautiful black and white study ofa lone dolphin artfully edited and framed, but the other shot which only just clinched it was Pal’s fab head on turtle munching on the sea grass beds. It was a great choice of composition, with the creature making eye contact, so it looks as if the turtle is holding us in its gaze. A lovely shot indeed, well done Pal."
