Fri, 05 Mar 2021

Two photographers from the Isle of Man have each won an award for their skills.

Sue Blythe won Travel Photographer of Year at The Societies of Photographers Annual Convention in London.

Sue's award-winning image was of a novice monk in Myanmar in late 2019.  

Keith Burns also from the Island won Documentary Photographer of Year. Keith's image was of the Island's prison officers conducting riot control training.

There were over 9,000 entries in the competition, and the winners were chosen by a panel of judges with many years of experience.

The event was held virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic.
