 CONGRATULATIONS TO PAUL LEHANE Paul has had the above image included in the 14th edition of the Landscape Photographer of the Year book which was published on 28 October by Ilex Press. The image was shot in the Silvertown area of London and has been turned upside down so that the balconies become cages as they might have felt during lockdown. Converting it to monochrome gave it an even more dynamic and graphic feel. |
