The winner of this year's Geogrpahy Department photographic competition is the image of the spring lambs. The picture taken by Roberta Pellow-Bailey fitted perfectly with the theme of regeneration. A peacful local scene is framed neatly by the grasses in the foreground. However, with a bumper entry, it was a very difficult decsion for the judges to make. Ben Butterworth's metrolink and Annie Preston's atmospheric dawn were both pictures that were among my personal favourites.
