Winner of the Ocean category was Daniel Fildes for Harbour Anemones. The judge said:This photo shows the magical world that lies just below any pier, jetty or harbour in Ireland. This photograph shows the density at which Plumose Anemones can be seen which can often be seen even from above the water
