The winning photos in a competition to mark Democracy Week have gone on display in Jersey's Royal Square.

More than 100 images were submitted for the 'My Island'-themed contest celebrating 'Local Icons'.

The judges reviewed 20 shortlisted photographs which featured a number of different locations.

Six year old Isaac Toates' picture of round towers, Lucy Cohu's Elizabeth Castle and Kristian Gorman's dawn over Mont Orgueil were the winners of the three age categories.

Otto Di Santo, Gary Power and ColinGriffiths were named runners up.

Deputy Carina Alves, Chair of the Political, Education and Awareness Sub-committee to raise political awareness and engagement with the public, said:

"The judges were very impressed with not only then umber of entries, but the quality of the images submitted to the ‘My Island’ Photography Competition as well.

"It was so interesting to see the historic landmarks, landscapes, iconic architecture, objects and artefacts people connected with and considered how these images offer more than just beautiful views."
