Houlton\u2019s photo also won the Wildlife Behavior category. <\/p>\n<p> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/SWB2025_1STSNPOTY-800x604.jpg\" alt=\"Caterpillars hang in midair on nearly invisible threads among trees in a dark forest, catching the light and creating a shimmering, floating effect against the blurred woodland background.\" width=\"800\" height=\"604\" class=\"size-large wp-image-847094\"  \/>\u2018Dance of the Gnats\u2019 \u00a9 Toby Houlton | Scottish Nature Photography Awards <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy winning image was taken at Little Garve in Ross-shire. I had been walking back beside the river in the late afternoon, and there, in patches of dappled sun, the gnats were \u2018dancing,&#8217;\u201d Houlton explains. \u201cA moment of inspiration made me realize that taking an image with a slow shutter speed would create the amazing light trails, and the hint of the darker woodland behind would provide the sense of place. The speed of these tiny dancers meant that multiple wingbeats were captured in the exposure, creating the patterns.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Competition judge Niall Irvine adds: \u201cIt takes the viewer a little time to work out what they are looking at in this image, but it is so rewarding! The highlighted patterns created by the movement of the gnats, captured by the creative use of photographic technique, and the subtle woodland textures in the background give the image of these tiny creatures drama and impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> Junior Scottish Nature Photographer of the Year  <\/p>\n<p>For the second straight year, young Scottish photographer Kiran Simpson was named Scottish Junior Nature Photographer of the Year. The now-14-year-old photographer from Dunfermline won the title for his spider photo, \u201cThe Leaf Eater.\u201d <\/p>\n<p> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/JUN2025_1ST-640x800.jpg\" alt=\"A close-up of a brown and white patterned spider perched on a dry, brown leaf with holes, set against a solid black background.\" width=\"640\" height=\"800\" class=\"size-large wp-image-847070\"  \/>\u2018The Leaf Eater\u2019 \u00a9 Kiran Simpson (age 14), Dunfermline | Scottish Nature Photography Awards <\/p>\n<p>\u201cRight outside my kitchen door, under the glow of the outdoor light, I spotted this garden spider on its web, with a leaf caught in the silk beside it. Against the darkness of the night, the patterns on its body and its spiny legs stood out in incredible detail,\u201d says the up-and-coming shutterbug. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI ran inside to grab my camera, knowing it might be gone by the time I got back. What I love most about this photo is that it was taken literally steps from my back door. It just goes to show that you don\u2019t need to travel far to find incredible wildlife; it\u2019s all around us if you just stop and look.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Judge Michael Prince called it a \u201cstriking macro photo.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was wonderful to see such a technically challenging photographic technique used so effectively to reveal the usually unnoticed life of a spider,\u201d Prince says. <\/p>\n<p> Student Scottish Nature Photographer of the Year  <\/p>\n<p>University student Rob Henderson won the title of Student Scottish Photographer of the Year 2025 for his portfolio, \u201cIn the Time Between.\u201d Henderson, who studies MA Geography at the University of Glasgow, has heavily used photography in his dissertation and coursework. <\/p>\n<p> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/STU2025_1ST_01-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"White water lilies in various stages of bloom float among large, round green lily pads on the surface of a calm pond, reflecting the surrounding environment.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-large wp-image-847091\"  \/>\u2018First Openings\u2019 \u00a9 Rob Henderson, part of his award-winning \u2018In the Time Between\u2019 portfolio | Scottish Nature Photography Awards <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was interested in capturing the contrast between the brief, seasonal presence of the lilies and the endurance of the pines through the yearly cycles. As both a geographer and photographer, I am drawn to the way landscapes can express change and time,\u201d Henderson says. <\/p>\n<p> Category Winners  <\/p>\n<p>Alongside the primary awards above, photographers in the Scottish Nature Photography Awards also competed across eight primary categories and two special categories for children and students.
