Congratulations again to Christian, and good luck to all those participating this year!
Paul Duxfield, our new competition judge:
"This month was very difficult with three shots that caught my eye. And the attention grabbers were the lovely evocative cave shot by Jo Si, the beautiful typically Red Sea reef scene from Sigitas and the stately Oceanic Whitetip with its retinue of pilot fish from Martina.
However after much deliberation I came down on the side of the colourful reef pic by Sigitas.This shot screams out Red Sea and couldn’t be anywhere else, it’s a very well captured exposed and aesthetically pleasing image. Well done Sigitas a very worthy winner and commiserations to the very close runners up."
