Proud to announce that my image "The Fellsman crosses Ribblehead Viaduct" has been awarded RUNNER-UP in UK Landscape Photographer of the Year 2022, featured in the Lines In The Landscape category (sponsored by Network Rail).
This is the second consecutive year I have received this accolade, so I'm feeling very honoured indeed.
It will be published in the Collection 15 Awards Book, and also be on display in the touring exhibition which begins in London at the end of the month.
Congratulations to all the other featured photographers!

The Ribblehead Viaduct, Yorkshire Dales by Baz Richardson (catching up again) The railway unions were on strike when we passed the Ribblehead Viaduct in the Yorkshire Dales, so there was little point in checking the timetable and waiting for a train! The viaduct with its 24 massive stone arches 104 feet above the moor, is regarded as the most impressive structure on the Settle-Carlisle Railway. It is Grade II*-listed and dates from the 1870s when hundreds of railway builders ("navvies") lost their lives building the line, from a combination of accidents, fights, and smallpox outbreaks. Many are buried in the nearby churchyard at Chapel-le-Dale, where there is a commemorative plaque inside the church. There is a fascinating and detailed historical note at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribblehead_Viaduct. https://flic.kr/p/2o9S8zF
