Winning Handbook image
Ed Silvester’s action shot of his young son bounding over the rocks at Prawle Point in South Devon was selected as the winning image in the Handbook category.
Ed said: 'We’d driven down from London for an Easter break in Devon. Prawle Point was our morning and evening playground. The kids would explore the rock pools and splash in puddles, doing all the things kids do when they’re not distracted by their phones.'
'I was photographing the sunset one evening when my 10-year-old son Adam came bounding into the frame. I like that he’s got his boots on, he’s not looking at a screen – he’s just jumping over the rocks. For me it captures the essence of what childhood is about.'
Landscape photographer Paul Harris, who helped judge the competition, said: 'This image has so much vitality both in the subject and in the way it makes you feel. Colour, energy and a sense of adventure all combine to allow the viewer in.'
Ania Hutchison’s bright composition of a summer’s day in the rolling Surrey hills was selected as the runner-up.
