GREY SEAL
Donna Nook in Lincolnshire hosts one of the largest and most accessible colonies of breeding grey seals. As the tide fell, I trekked across more than a mile of mud and sand to reach the main colony on a sandbank. Crawling on my tummy, I was able to approach this seal close enough to shoot using a wide angle lens, giving an unusual perspective.
