Once again, we had a fantastic number of entries for the photography competition and found it really hard to agree on a winner, but congratulations go to Paul Marriott.

The September Issue of The Three Villages Magazine’s cover will feature the work of Paul Marriott from High Flying Drone Shots. The stunning aerial shot was chosen because it shows the beauty of the area in such a unique way.

We had a really fantastic number of entries for the photography competition. The photographs were of such high quality that it made it really hard to choose a winner.

Congratulations go to our winner, Katy Smawfield! This wonderful image features Sophie Smawfield taking a photo on the tow path just beyond Stanstead Abbotts.

Katy’s photograph will be used on the cover of our second issue, which is due out at the start of June. Keep an eye out for it in a month’s time!
