Images from the latest South West Coast Path Photographer of the Year are on display at London’s Paddington Station. The exhibition, which runs until 31 July, features 23 striking, large-scale photographs celebrating the landscapes, wildlife and people of the 630-mile South West Coast Path.

Among them is overall winner Neil Barnes’ stunning image of fog tumbling over the towering cliffs at West Bay in Dorset.

Neil, who captured the image while walking along the pier at West Bay said: ‘It was a particularly foggy morning, and I could see the mist spilling over the cliffs towards the beach. As I approach my 50th year as a photographer, moments like this still fill me with amazement – it felt like a once in a lifetime opportunity.’
