Jessika ‘takes the biscuit’ with grasshopper shot

Congratulations to Islander Jessika Hilton for capturing the attention of the judges of the Hampshire and IW Wildlife Trust’s photo competition with this beautiful shot of a grasshopper.

Jessika’s shot was chosen as the best in the Insect category with judge Chris Packham saying, “The enigmatic grasshopper takes the biscuit. Mildly abstract, unusual, peeping and most importantly a familiar, everyday subject portrayed in a surprising and attractive way. Top marks. I love the total green-ness!”

Not only that, she also won overall prize for best photo across all 12 categories.

Well done Jessica (aka Candlesnuff) we love it!
