Congratulations to Jacqui Ruddock! . Your beautifu

Congratulations to Jacqui Ruddock!
.
Your beautiful sunset through the seasons tree has won our Photogratree 2020 Competition! We’ll be in touch soon to deliver your tree-theme goody box.
.
Our judge, Manchester based film-maker and photographer @luke_blazejewski (check out his work!) said “I love how the bright golden sky reflecting on the cold, snowy ground creates an idyllic countryside scene. The tree is perfectly situated within its landscape and the church tower in the background harks back to the compositional style of the Romantics, and celebrates our relationship with the natural world.”
.
We had so many fantastic entries – we’ve decided to post the rest of Luke’s top ten here too. His special commendations go to:
.
2/3/7 – @steven.darbyshire
4 – Goska Langrish
5 – Clare Donegan
6 – Laura Robinson
8 – Greg @gswportraits
9 – Jay Clarke @therapy.up.north
10 – Sleepy Teacher
.
We’d like to say a massive you to everyone for sharing your wonderful photos with us – a full gallery of all the incredible tree photos you sent in is now up on our Flickr page: https://www.flickr.com/photos/manchesterfoe/albums/72157714833190758
.
Until next time!
.
The UK has legislated for net-zero emissions by 2050. Trees are important for the sequestering of carbon and the UK Committee on Climate Change has called for three billion to be planted over the next thirty years. .
Friends of the Earth is campaigning nationally to double tree cover across the UK. Manchester Friends of the Earth are now planning to work across Greater Manchester to increase awareness, advocacy and public engagement in practical action to help support this cause.
.
