The Land of the Fanns Landscape Partnership Scheme has announced the three winners of its autumn short film competition, all of which captured not only the beauty of local landscapes but their personal responses to it as well.
The film that came in first place was Beyond the Road by Mark Tilbury, which focused on a footpath walk beginning in Buttsbury. In second place was Bob Stevenson for his film on Langdon Hills and its Peter Rabbit Trail. Paul J Young’s beautiful photography of the carpet of bluebells at Nursery Wood in Bedfords Park won third place.
The Land of the Fanns Landscape Partnership Scheme aims to reconnect local people to the countryside around them in south west Essex, Thurrock and Brentwood.
