Caron Steele, coast and marine category winner: Emergence, Bempton Cliffs, Yorkshire. “Having seen many diving gannet photographs I wanted to try and capture something a bit different. I watched the birds fishing and was fascinated by the way the gannets would emerge from nowhere to steal another bird’s prey. I was keen to capture the moment just before they broke the surface, while they were still in ‘stealth mode’. A combination of bright sunshine and cloud made setting the exposure difficult, but the result has some lovely patterns on the water”. (Photo by Caron Steele/British Wildlife Photography Awards 2017)
