This image is quirky and cheeky, down to the somewhat quizzical look on the seagull’s face! Nice alignment of the subject within the frame of the image. The lighting captures something early-summerish about this scene and is a part of Portsmouth not usually seen by tourists or in our marketing.<\/p>\n
Second Place: Night-time cityscape (Joseph Long)<\/strong><\/p>\n

A beautiful cityscape at night. This photograph shows Portsmouth as a busy and exciting urban centre, the photo reaches right across the island to Langstone Harbour and the lamps glow red, showing life across the island.<\/p>\n
Third Place (joint):<\/strong><\/p>\n
Yomper (Katy Hodges)<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nThe silhouette of the Yomper against a contrasting Portsmouth sunset sky creates a dramatic atmosphere. The sun, burning but hazy behind looming clouds, seagulls circling around the beach, and the small delicate detail of the Victorian lamps of the prom cast a light on this area of our city<\/p>\n
Southsea bandstand (Oliver Stedman)<\/strong><\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/history.port.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/732758-2-e1499335901944-768x1024.jpg?resize=768%2C1024\")

The bandstand image perfectly sums up and reflects the mixture of ‘old’ and ‘new’ at Portsmouth. A modern structure, built in an Edwardian style, now being put to use for 21st century recreation, and enjoyed by students, who make Portsmouth a lively and vibrant place to be.<\/p>\n
