A few weeks ago I entered the Suffolk Wildlife Trust's Photographic Competition. To say the least I was pleased, when a short while later I got an email to say that I had been placed Highly Commended in the 'Young Wildlife Photographer' category. So it was on Friday I was to be found in Suffolk -at Lackford Lakes to be precise- for an awards ceremony. I must admit, I have never been one for large gatherings of people -20 counts as large- but I won't deny, I had a fantastic evening. It was great to talk to some of the other photographers and staff at the reserve. There was also free salted peanuts....
It was this beauty of a Jumping Spider who won Highly Commended, if only it had known...it might have been more of a poser. They seemed to like running away from the camera if I remember correctly.
So a rather enjoyable evening, I was home by half-past-eight. And I got a certificate....
