#1. Winner: Thirst by Tom Way

“Increasingly over the last few years the rain seasons have become shorter and shorter and the droughts more prolonged and intense over time. Elephants travel from afar to seek refuge under the towering Mt Kilimanjaro whose snowmelt gives life to the lush swamps within Amboseli National Park. Elephants travelling into the park from the North West have to cross Lake Amboseli, which is bone dry unless there are extended rains. In 2016 the early rains did not arrive and everyday throughout my stay I would base myself on this lakebed looking for large shapes to be crossing into the park from a distance looking for water. On this particular evening we spotted a lone bull making its way across the cracked earth. I wanted to include as much of the texture in the foreground as possible to emphasis the severe drought and to signify the reason these mammals are travelling so far to reach the foothills of the mountain.”

#2. Peoples Choice: Fox meets Fox portrait by Martin West

“I had walked past this fox street art a number of times and knew there were foxes in the area. I waited it out one evening and after a while, one of the foxes came by. It stopped briefly right by the artwork, appeared to look at it and I managed to get a photo. It then carried on its way. It really felt like a once in a lifetime opportunity!”
