A few days ago I recieved a call from the Horniman museum that I had won a "Highly commended" in their Darwin 200 photo competition. The photo will be exhibited at the museum until next March. I just got back from the exhibition opening where I got a framed print of my photo and a certificate.
My photo is also on the BBC website here (the third one).

This is the photo:



This is the first time I have won anything, so I am rather chuffed! :D
 
Well done, nice lighting and the background is blurred nicely.
 
Nice one Mike and very well done, cracking shot too :thumbs:
 
well done mate ! i can see why you won ! amazing capture :thumbs:
 
:thumbs: good stuff well done!!
 
Congrats. Good job...
 
Very nice, well done.
 
Oooh nice, and what a great event to be a part of two.
 
Congrats on the prize and photo, I enjoyed reading the lil quote from you too about the subject matter, really added to the image I feel.
 
Can clearly see why it is a winning picture! It's a very neat capture and that golden strip in the background rounds everything up very nicely. Excellent work!
 
Hey congratulations that is a fantastic achievement. Nice crisp photo to get you the No1 spot.

Thanks all.

I did not actually win the competition (the first pic on the BBC website of the tree frog won overall), just got a "Highly commended" in the adult category.

It was still a kick to see my pic on the wall in the gallery though. :D

The photos are also on the Guardian website
 
Cracking shot. Out of interest though - the fact it's on the bbc site have you relinquished copyright/ have they grabbed the copright?
 
well done, excellent picture!
 
Very deserving....!
