Once again we are pleased to showcase the St. Andrew’s Hospice Photography Calendar for 2020 which was produced through a collaborative competition between NCL photography students and the hospice.
The winners were revealed at an awards ceremony in June 2019 which was attended by staff from the hospice and the judging panel including renowned photographer Colin Prior.
Images were selected considering the theme of “family tree” with interpretations varying from the specifics of actual natural history photographs to family bonds and special places that hold memories.
The winning images represented the broad range of courses which we offer in Photography from NQ, HNC and HND. Please see below for preview of the images which will appear in the calendar.
