Astronomy Photographer of The Year 2024 Serpentine A3 Print
Serpentine © Paul Haworth
Astronomy Photographer of the Year is an annual competition featuring the world’s greatest space photography. Photographers from across the globe compete to take home the prestigious title.
"At new moon in April 2023, I headed up to the Norfolk coast to Snettisham Beach, famous for its vast tidal mudflats that attract migrating birds in staggering numbers.
My foreground subject for the evening was the large dilapidated jetty, which was built in the Second World War to allow gravel extracted from the nearby pits to be moved by boat, destined to help build the concrete runways needed to support the American bombers being stationed in the UK. I was accompanied all night by the incredible sound of the birds out on the flats - they never ceased and it was a fantastic soundtrack to the crystal clear night.
I named this image "Serpentine" as I love the curved channel in the mudflat, mirroring the trailing stars, and the wonderful scaly texture of the mudcracks." Paul Haworth
