Since scooping his prize, Stuart Bridewell has now graduated from BU鈥檚 partner college, Wiltshire College Salisbury, with a First Class Honours degree in Photography. His love of the medium began in 1984 when he first acquired a 35mm film SLR and was strengthened by a 2007 trip to Juba in Southern Sudan with his first digital camera.
Stuart鈥檚 submission for the BIPP Awards was a portfolio of five images taken in Iceland, as a kick-start to his graduate project entitled 鈥楨lemental鈥.聽
He said: "I was hoping to capture the varied and changing atmosphere of Iceland, trying not to be influenced by images already in the mind from the thousands upon thousands of images already taken of Iceland.鈥澛
