The photo competition is now closed.
Our East Suffolk Through the Lens photo competition encouraged photographers of all ages and abilities to capture what makes East Suffolk special to them, whether it’s the people or wildlife, the beautiful nature, daily life or vibrant towns.
In total, we received over 230 amazing entries and our judging panel had the difficult task of selecting just 5 photos as winners and runners-up. Our winners and runners-up are:
Winner: Jenifer Everett-Day – ‘Family at Lowestoft Beach’ |

Under 16 Winner: Summer Rose Crowe – ‘Colours in the sky in Lowestoft’ |
Our judges said: “Lowestoft is an exciting and dynamic port town, and this image perfectly embodies its tradition and its progress. The combination of industry and such a beautiful evening sky sits perfectly in a confident and well-framed shot.” |
Runner up: Daniel Brand – ‘Magical sunrise at Shingle Street’ |
Our judges said: “An outstanding shot of a wonderful location, capturing its stillness and scale perfectly. The different but complementary and misty colours combine beautifully to create an unforgettable image.” |
Runner up: Alison Colmans – ‘Aldeburgh beach in the sunshine’ |
Our Judges said: “A simple but really inviting picture, welcoming and anticipating a social gathering in a wonderful setting. It offers a real sense of the different ways people come together to enjoy East Suffolk.” |
Runner up: Mike Bowden – ‘Blaxhall motorcross event’ |
Our Judges said: “A brilliantly captured and dynamic action shot with a huge amount of energy and vibrancy. What would usually be a blur of speed and noise, frozen, pin sharp in time with great confidence.” |
