Guardian Readers' Travel Photography Competition: January 2017

Winner. “Despite the temptation to seek shelter myself, I took this photo of a small group of gentoo (penguins) on Saunders Island in the Falklands as they struggled against the wind and driving sand to return to their rookery”. PAUL GOLDSTEIN, JUDGE: “A clear winner. Initially I thought this was a study in slow shutter speed, but then saw that these gentoos are almost floating across this Falklands beach in a sandstorm. I would have cropped the whole foreground as it adds little, but that’s a minor criticism. I’ve been to this beach and never got close to this sort of masterpiece”. (Photo by John Birch/The Guardian)
