The Voice of Spalding and South Holland
Runner-up: Jackie Forrest, from Holbeach, captured this image in Gedney Church.
These are the winning entries in the Lincolnshire Churches competition run by Market House Photography Group in Long Sutton.
This year the competition attracted 77 pictures and while the three winners were from Long Sutton and Holbeach, entries were received from North East Lincolnshire, Lincoln, Boston and the surrounding areas.
The competition is run on an annual basis and is about Lincolnshire and trying to capture different subjects to reflect the county as a whole.
This year the group achieved the criteria as entries included churches from the north, south, east and west of Lincolnshire.
Each entrant is permitted to enter four photographs, which are independently judged.
Award-winning nature-inspired photographer Jamie Hall, from Suffolk, presented the winners with their cash prizes during a talk to the group.

“The presentation morning was very well attended.”
Market House Photography Group will be announcing details of the 2016 competition in January.
