Counties websites.

Over 800 people entered the competition, Out of Hours - capturing the
people of Kent, Surrey and Sussex enjoying their free time - which launched

Judging the competition was Fleet Street's first female sports photographer,
Hy Money; Peter Lindsey, Group Editor
of Herald Newspapers; and Martin Saggers, fast bowler
for KCCC and England.

The judges whittled down the entries to nine finalists, and the winner
was then chosen by an online vote.

As well as the prestigious title of 大象传媒 South East Photographer
of the Year, Helen has also won the chance to refine her technique
by spending a day with sports photographer Hy Money.

All nine finalists, together with the winner of the Under 16 category,
will form part of an exhibition which will travel around the southeast
over the next few months.
