The Royal Parks’ spring photography competition winners have been announced.
This image of four cute goslings was among the prize winners, along with a shot of a swan soaring through the air, a silhouetted coot skipping across water and a common blue butterfly pictured in the spring sunshine.
The competition invited park visitors to photograph the new life emerging in London’s eight historic Royal Parks during the springtime.
