2015/2016 Winners 

During our 2015/2016 'Capture the Moment photo contest'  our judges reviewed over 250 photographs with 5 great pictures wining the month prices. 

We had the huge pleasure of having a professional photographer Tom Quan, review all the awesome entries made and appoint the overall winner. As he has been on a few hiking trips himself, he understands the challenge of 'capturing the moment' whilst out in the wilderness.
