A regional daily deputy editor is celebrating after being commended in an award celebrating the best landscape photography.

Yorkshire Post deputy editor Ian Day won the commendation in the Landscape Photographer of the Year’s ‘home of amazing moments’ category.

Ian’s entry, a photo of a fishing boat at Whitby, has also been picked to feature in the awards book, Landscape Photographer of the Year: Collection 11.

A free exhibition of the best entries, including Ian’s photo of Whitby, will be held at London Waterloo station from 20 November.

It will then embark on a tour of selected stations nationwide.

Said Ian: “I am absolutely delighted to be commended in these prestigious awards, it’s a real honour that one of my images has been selected alongside some amazing landscape photography.

“It is brilliant to help promote our wonderful county, especially picturesque Whitby.”
