Royal Navy life on camera

The winners of this year's Royal Navy photographic competition have been announced. 

Royal Navy photographers that deploy with warships and commando units across the world have been recognised for their talent at the prestigious annual Peregrine Trophy awards.

With over 350 professional and 65 amateur entries this year, the competition was fierce. But it was whittled down to just 6 winners by a panel of experts, with Petty Officer (Photographer) Mez Merrill taking the coveted Peregrine Trophy with his selection of 6 images.

The purpose of the awards is to encourage the production of eye-catching imagery that can be used in the media to demonstrate Royal Navy and Royal Marines’ operations.
