UPY  British Waters Wide Angle - Highly Commended
'Drifting through the moons'
Richard Shucksmith

We had been diving for a week out to Sula Sgeir/North Rona North West coast of Scotland with Bob Anderson on the MV Halton. On our way back we dove some sites along the north coast of Scotland, particularly inside Loch Eriboll. Dropping in, we followed a wall for a while before coming up into the shallows where we encountered the dense swarm of moon jellyfish (Aurelia aurita). I do love being amongst a swarm of jellyfish; it is a worldly experience.

Judge's comment: Delicate shades and delicate subjects caught in a perfect composition with an obvious main subject supported by an impressive range of shapes and sizes.
