The rules were simple: pictures must have been taken at home between 23 March and 31 May, and uploaded to Instagram, Flickr, Twitter or Facebook. They could be of anything, but we\u2019d award a \u00a3100 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cameraworld.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CameraWorld<\/a> voucher for our favourite image, (chosen by a panel from AP and CameraWorld) and five Benro mini tripods for the best runner-up pictures of a person, a pet, an object, something edible, and a view through a door or window.

That\u2019s what Drew and his model Charlotte Godfrey did for this shot, which was done over Facetime using an iPhone 7. \u2018We communicated online and worked together to create a frame using white netting, sat by as much window light as possible and took the shot remotely,\u2019 explains Drew. \u2018I delicately edited the iPhone file inside Photoshop and was delighted with the response I received!\u2019 We loved the image and chose it as the overall winner even before we learned of the ingenuity behind how it was created. @drewbuckler (Instagram).<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-138519 size-large\" src=\"\/export\/Jasmin-White-brownies-BEST-FOOD-320x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Best Food Photo<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Brownies<\/strong><br \/>\nJasmin White\/Canon EOS 5D Mark lV, 50mm f\/1.4, 1\/250sec f\/7.1<br \/>\n\u2018I made brownies with the last of what was in the cupboard and had an impromptu shoot with the ingredients,\u2019 says Jasmin.

Zoe, 26, lives in Weston-super-Mare and this is her first published photo. \u2018I have always enjoyed taking photos but the past year it has become a true passion of mine,\u2019 she says. \u2018This is my cat, fondly known as Mr Biscuit. It was a rainy day and I found him peering out of the window at the birds in the nearby tree. His eyes just looked so wild as he was watching them intently. I quickly grabbed my phone and snapped him before he had a chance to move!

On this particular day she was fed up and sat watching people on their daily exercise. I thought it summed up how most of us had been feeling.\u2019 We love the girl\u2019s pose and expression, and the way she is framed by the rainbow, while the window reflects the outside world. @sammillishowe (Instagram)<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-138524 size-large\" src=\"\/export\/Jasmin-White-Vinny-320x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Vinny<\/strong><br \/>\nJasmin White\/Canon EOS 5D Mark lV, 1\/250sec f\/2.8<br \/>\nJasmin is clearly a versatile photographer, having taken two of our favourite pictures in completely different genres: pets and food. \u2018The last few months have been difficult for us all,\u2019 she admits. \u2018When lockdown was announced all my work dried up. But in many ways this period has been amazing. I\u00a0challenged myself to document this uncertain time by highlighting the good in the everyday. I\u2019ve started looking more carefully at my surroundings and noticed the beauty in things I\u2019ve never seen before. It\u2019s good to have this daily thing to keep my mind focused on photography rather than the news.\u2019 Jasmin captured her dog <em>Vinny<\/em>in his favourite spot \u2013 her bed. @thesecountryroads (Instagram).<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-138525 size-large\" src=\"\/export\/Nicki-Joe-Day-5-Fays-hands-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Fay&#8217;s Hands<\/strong><br \/>\nNicki-Joe Baxter\/Fujifilm X100T, 1\/125sec f\/9<br \/>\n\u2018Home-Bound\u2019 is a documentary project that I started as we went into lockdown, says Nicki-Joe, who lives in Huddersfield and teaches GCSE &amp; A Level Photography at a school in Leeds. \u2018It has been a challenge training my eye to look at these four walls with fresh eyes each day. I hope to look back on these images and be reminded of what a surreal time this was.\u2019 Nicki-Joe has taken some great photos but we chose this one because it depicts, with great style, a previously mundane activity that has taken on a new significance recently. @nickijoephoto (Instagram)<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-138526 size-large\" src=\"\/export\/Chukwuma-_583-250x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Portrait<\/strong><br \/>\nChukwuma Chisom Victor\/Tecno Camon 12<br \/>\nThe unusual composition of this portrait caught our eye. 19-year-old Chukwuma, from Nigeria, used his sister as the model, and took the photo on his phone. \u2018The inspiration behind the picture is that I wanted to recreate a romantic scene of a girl who is in love,\u2019 he explains.

He embarked on a picture-a-day project as something to do in lockdown. This was Day 27. \u2018I was walking through the hallway in my home when I saw my wife washing a delicate garment in the bathroom sink and decided to capture it, explains Estevan. \u2018To me, it was a beautiful moment of isolation and reflection in pure form.\u2019 We couldn\u2019t have put it better.\u00a0@estevan.photography (Instagram)<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-138529 size-large\" src=\"\/export\/Tim-Armstrong-Disney-1-465x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"465\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Disney<\/strong><br \/>\nTim Armstrong\/Canon EOS 5D Mk IV, 24-105mm, 1\/200 sec f\/11<br \/>\n\u2018Early in lockdown I was looking for things to photograph and my favourite model (my dog Disney), seemed to be the obvious victim, says Tim, a keen amateur from Leicestershire. The location was actually my bed. I set up a collapsible black backdrop and a Yongnuo Speedlite fitted with a Neewer 80cm softbox to the left of Disney, and a white reflector to the right just to take out some of the shadow.\u2019 The strong eye contact, wayward ear, and superb technical quality make this a winner in our eyes.\u00a0@turnipvindaloo (Instagram)<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-138530 size-large\" src=\"\/export\/Ian_Knight-Heroic_Performance-300x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/>\n<p><strong>Heroic performance<\/strong><br \/>\nIan Knight\/Sony A7 III, 50mm, 1\/250sec f\/8<br \/>\n\u2018The bear was created by someone living in our village and sold to raise money for NHS related charities,\u2019 explains Ian. \u2018The setup was simple: a red tablecloth\u00a0as a backdrop, and a light with a cardboard snoot. The red\u00a0\u201ccurtains\u201d and spotlight were to suggest the dual meaning of\u00a0a theatre, where the NHS heroes perform on a daily basis.\u2019 We liked how the image is symbolic of both NHS workers and the support they have received from the public, and also a resurgence of interest in arts and crafts, and other creative pursuits during the lockdown.

This photo was taken in natural light on my balcony. My daily photo exercises helped me get through lockdown in a good mood and\u00a0let me experiment. I learnt tethered shooting, focus shift, photo stacking, and equipped my mobile studio with professional lights.
