Dark underground access tunnels, light diffraction and behind the scenes at a world-leading research centre amongst STFC Photowalk 2014 winners

STFC recently announced the winners of its 2014 Photowalk competition, which showcases some of the UK’s leading-edge science and world-class technical facilities.

More than 200 amateur and professional photographers took part across four STFC sites: the UK Astronomy Technology Centre (UK ATC) in Edinburgh, Daresbury Laboratory in Cheshire, the Chilbolton Observatory in Hampshire and Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.

Dr Andrew Taylor, Executive Director National Laboratories said: “This latest series of STFC Photowalks has been a tremendous success and the images produced help to capture some of the incredible science that goes on at our sites in a fresh and exciting way. We’re sure that the winning photographs will fire imaginations and raise the profile of the fascinating work that’s carried out at our sites”.
