The Ocean Photography Awards competition organisers and Blancpain revealed the winners at an event held at Blancpain’s London Boutique on September 16. A pop-up exhibition, running until October 20 at 11 Bond Street, was also launched. In parallel, an open-air gallery was set up along the Thames (The Queen’s Walk) to present the winning photographs to the general public. The competition’s overall prize was awarded to talented Australia-based photographer, Aimee Jan, who took a beautiful and touching shot of a green turtle in a school of glass fish. The Female Fifty Fathoms award was won by Renee Capozzola, an American photographer and biology teacher who takes a special interest in marine conservation.
