First prize in a National Competition through Practical Photography magazine with a photograph of Sheffield's popularly named Cheese Grater Car Park. The prize took me to the Tatra Mountains in Slovakia with two top tutors. Sadly I broke my ankle on the first day slipping in the unexpected heavy snow. After a sledge rescue, I spent the week recovering from an operation in the local hospital. I did get some photographs before the unhappy incident.
