Lowestoft Journal Photo Competition

Dragonfly by Yvonne Adamski

Picture Studios is often working in partnership with the Lowestoft Journal and they are providing the weekly prize for our photo competition Picture Studios 179 London Road North Lowestoft NR32 1HG www.picturestudios.net

AN amazing close-up of a dragonfly has flown high above the competition to be singled out as the winner of The Journal’s Picture of the Week.

The zoomed-in image, which was taken by Yvonne Adamski, of Holst Close, Lowestoft, gives a fascinating look at the insect, showing off the patterns on its wings.

Yvonne said: “I am delighted to have won this week’s photo competition. The photograph of the dragonfly was taken just as it was about to fly off from a nature pond in Kelling Heath. I felt so lucky to capture it in such clarity.

Yvonne will be presented with her image of the bridge in a 12in x 10in frame, mounted and inscribed, in a prize worth more than £60 from Picture Studios, of London Road North, Lowestoft.

The photo will also go forward to the next final of winning images where, together with her fellow prize-winners, she will have a chance to win her image in a printed 12in x 18in photo block worth £130.
