The results below show that the only rejected image was in fact the only one accepted by the Royal Photographic Society this year!

Inquisitive pupils: Tales from the riverbank

Cornish Guardian

AN EXPERT on the River Camel has wowed children at Wadebridge CP School with his wildlife knowledge.

The Year 6 pupils were asked questions such as 'What has black-tipped, long ears like a rabbit?' by Wadebridge naturalist and photographer Adrian Langdon.

   Wadebridge CP School pupils Jack, Lucy, Fergal, Ewan, Isaac, Bryn and Hannah, with Adrian Langdon, show off their pictures.

Teacher Jeremy Northcott said: "They have been learning about rivers and the River Camel in particular, and so were naturally intrigued to find out more about the wildlife that can be seen around the areas the river runs.

Spellbound

"Adrian, who is an associate of the Royal Photographic Society, the warden of Walmsley Sanctuary and leader of the Cornwall Wildlife Trust's photographic group, kept the children spellbound with his illustrated tales from the riverbank.

"In fact, almost all that could be heard were the spontaneous 'oohs' and 'aahs' that accompanied images ranging from herring gull chicks to dolphins, basking sharks to otters and puffins to peregrine falcons.

"Once question time was complete, all that remained was for a handful of proud artists to pose for a photo with their newly-created river pictures and their knowledgeable friend from the riverside.

"Oh, and by the way, of course, like the children, I'm sure you knew that a hare has black-tipped long ears like a rabbit."
