A little bit of self trumpet blowing today, apologies in advance.

I picked up an e-mail today from the Andover Based Hawk Conservancy Trust to inform me that I had won their 2008 Photographer of the year award with an image of a Short Eared Owl in the Wild on the Isle of Mull.
My shot was chosen as the winer by TV presenter Chris Packham who is a trustee of the charity and judged the competition

I know it's not a major competition but I am feeling very pleased with myself today.

My prize includes a photographic day at the Trust, and my choice of a UK workshop with Wild-arena.

Now how do I persuade my wife I need to upgrade from my trusty, if slightly battered, Nikon D50 if I win things like this.

Thanks for listening.

Well done!

Do you have a linky to the winning photo? (assuming you have it in your gallery of course)

Thank you all.

Hi Matt, my image is in my p/f, but I'm not sure how to link to it from here, it's on the 3rd page in, The Hunter at Dusk.
