Keen West Buckland amateur photographer Paul Steven was first out of the hat in a draw to win a book featuring photographs of landscapes and wildlife in South-West England.

‘Wild Southwest’ is written by Nigel Hicks, a leading Devon-based professional photographer and author, who ran the draw for his Facebook and Twitter followers. Paul is a web designer and app developer.

The colourful and richly illustrated book is an introduction to South-West England’s most beautiful wild places, and magnificent plants and animals. The 160-page title is published by Aquaterra Publishing and is priced £14.99.
