Ptolemy: 14-under16 years

The theme this year was ‘A Great Day by the Water’

WINNER

Timothy Ansell
A Great Day by the Water - Barmouth, Wales
The Judges considered this to be a highly detailed and particularly neat piece of work of part of the coast known to Timothy. The inclusion of a quotation summed up his day. It was felt that this young man could have quite a future if he chooses cartography as a career.

COMMENDED

Joseph Cramphorn
A Great Day by the Water
