The Landscape Photographer of the Year. Heather in Bloom, North York Moors, England by John Robinson — ‘Countryside is GREAT’ Award Winner 2014 “The setting sun dropped below the cloud transforming this wonderful scene. I have visited this particular location a few times and feel the best time to visit is during the late summer months when the heather is in full bloom, providing beautiful colour and contrast against the summer greens of the surrounding fields and hills.’ Heather in Bloom, Roseberry Topping, North Yorkshire, England.” <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>

The Landscape Photographer of the Year. The last of the evening light on Durdle Door, Jurassic Coast, Dorset, England by Jake Pike (lives in Dorset) — Winner, Youth Classic view 2014 ‘Durdle Door is an iconic landmark of the South West Coast Path and of the Dorset countryside. In this image, I waited for the late evening sun to shine on the natural archway and included the coast path in my composition to add perspective to the image. The long exposure allowed me to show some movement in the clouds and to smooth out the sea.’ <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>

The Landscape Photographer of the Year exhibition: Hope Valley from the Great Ridge, Derbyshire, England by Dave Fieldhouse (W Midlands) — Winner, Classic view 2014 ‘This was not the photograph I had in mind when I left the house at 3:30am. Having watched the sun rise over Mam Tor, I decided to follow the path towards Hollins Cross. This view, and the fallen gate in front of it appealed to me, so I set up to take the shot. Satisfied with the image, I turned away to get my flask of hot coffee, when I noticed out of the corner of my eye that all of a sudden I wasn’t the only one enjoying the view this particular morning. I quickly took a second shot, with my new friend in just the right place.’ <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>

The Landscape Photographer of the Year: Newbury, Berkshire, England by Robert Oliver (lives in Berkshire) — Winner, Your view 2014 ‘A dank, misty morning turned my local woods into a different and unfamiliar world. In the past, I’d walked past this spot on numerous occasions and never gave it a second look. However, the relatively subdued colour palette of the lichens, mist and some dew-laden spider webs, together with the vibrant red berries attracted my attention this time.’ <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>

The Landscape Photographer of the Year: London Bridge Station, England by Stephen Bright (lives Hampshire) — Network Rail ‘Lines in the Landscape’ Award Winner 2014 ‘Taken at sunset, this is the view from level 72 of The Shard, for a brief time the tallest building in Western Europe, looking almost straight down onto some of the platforms at London Bridge Station. Shooting at an oblique angle through glass can be problematic although thankfully The Shard viewing platform has single glazing in many places. However, that benefit is counterbalanced by the fact that tripods are not permitted, requiring imaginative use of other supports.’ <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>

The Landscape Photographer of the Year: A Beginning and an End, Glencoe, Scotland by Mark Littlejohn — Landscape Photographer of the Year 2014 Extra information from photographer that can be used to support short caption ...’I’d got up at 1.30am to drive to Glencoe, meeting a couple of pals en route. Unfortunately, the rain was torrential at dawn and the water levels were the highest I’d ever seen them. We wandered about waiting for gaps in the weather and as we did, I saw this wee stream form high up on Gearr Aonach. It tumbled steeply down the slopes before vanishing again near the base of the mountain. With more squalls coming through I decided to take this image as the light became slightly more diffuse. It had to be a quick handheld shot due to the sideways rain.’ <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>

The Landscape Photographer of the Year. Fred ‘n’ Sue — Brighton, East Sussex, England by Jo Teasdale (lives Brighton) — Winner, Living the view 2014 ‘This image was captured during a blizzard on the Hove Lawns seafront in Brighton. Sue had to walk for miles with her bike, snow encrusted upon her back and her fingers frozen to the bone. Meanwhile her dog Fred ran alongside enjoying the snow. Sue just wanted to get back to the warmth of her home but Fred had other ideas ... all he was interested in was having a social with his friends on the lawns. Home wasn’t on his agenda.’ <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>

The Landscape Photographer of the Year: The Arts Tower, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England by Daniel Cook (S Yorks) — Winner, Urban view 2014 ‘The Arts Tower is England’s tallest University Building. It was built in the 1960s and appears to have been inspired by the New York City skyscrapers of that time. Despite a recent refurbishment, the architecture still conveys a sense of clinical minimalism with square edges and plain patterns. This photo was taken from the public park and duck pond, which sit at the base of the tower, on a day I was trying out some new equipment. When walking around the area, I noticed the position of the small, bare tree contrasting with the light wall. Initially, I tried to capture the tower reflected in the water of the pond but then felt that conveying the clinical feel of the architecture alone would create a stronger image. I also wanted to make the most of the strong line of the building in the foreground, which was at right angles to the tower itself.’. <a href="http://www.take-a-view.co.uk/" target="_blank">Find out more here. </a>
