A touching shot of a young boy and a dog both with their head in their hands - or paws – has been beaten stiff competition to be named winner of a photography competition.
More than 1,000 photographers entered the childphotocompetition.com contest that was themed around children with animals, but Polish snapper Justyna Garczyk-Kleszcz’s atmospheric black and white snap took the prize.
Julie Whelan was the only English photographer to make the final 40 with a winning picture showing a seaside scene through the eyes of a dog, featuring the back of a furry head in the foreground as two young girls paddle in the shallow surf in the distance.
