Neil was over the moon yesterday to named UK Travel Photographer of the Year by the Master Photographers Association, the only organisation in the UK for full time professional photographers.
The photograph, of a beach at Hikkaduwa in Sri Lanka was taken during a quiet moment late in the afternoon, whiclst Neil was in the country to photograph a 'Destination Wedding'.
'It is always a great honour to win such a coveted title and it was even more special as i originally took it as a photo for myself. To be recognised by other fantastic professional photographers makes it even more special'
I now have something to live up to for next year to try and better this and being the MPA / Aceboni 3 from 1 weding photographer of the year 2009.
