29 awesome winning photos from the 24 Hours in Bristol competition 2017
For the first time, all the entries for this year’s 24 Hours in Bristol photography competition had to be taken on a smartphone. And the results are stunning.
As for other years, the photographs had to all be taken within a specific 24-hour period, with category winners as well as hourly winners.
The overall first prize was won by Sarah Diamond Vale from Bristol’s twin city of Oporto in Portugal:

“I am so surprised to win this prize,” Sarah said. “There were many fantastic photographs here so I am very honoured. Bristol is a wonderful city and I have loved being here.
“Bristol is a very photogenic city and the people are so friendly. I love the coloured houses, the harbourside, the graffiti art, the bridge and the diversity of the people here.”
The overall second prize was won by Duncan Nagle from Walsall for a portrait of Ray taking a break from painting Bristol’s historic fire boat Pyranaut during the maritime history weekend:

Duncan is originally from Bristol and went to Bristol Cathedral School, but has lived in London and Walsall for a number of years. He and his wife Karen went back home with a number of prizes each.
The overall third prize was won by Stuart Lees from Bristol for his colourful photo of a seagull (pictured top). Stuart had intended to photograph cormorants, so hid his iPad in a box with a hole cut out and set it to take pictures every 10 seconds.
Although the cormorants decided to fish elsewhere that day, a photogenic seagull swooped in for a winning selfie instead.
