Historic Photographer of the Year Awards 2021 winners revealed

Steve Liddiard has been named overall winner of the Historic Photographer of the Year Awards 2021, for his photo of the Whiteford Point Lighthouse in the Gower Peninsula, Wales.

“I regularly take my dog for a walk at sunrise in Bristol,” said Mr Binding.

“The bridge acts as a gateway to the city, and mist adds a magic quality to an already stunning scene.”

The Where History Happened category went to Iain McCallum for his drone picture of the shipwrecks of the Wastdale H and Arkendale H, which tragically collided in the River Severn in October 1960 (below).
