The 10th edition of Landscape Photographer of the Year – a coffee-table book featuring spectacular full-colour prints of the winning and commended entries from the 2016 Take A View Landscape Photographer of the Year competition – has just been published. The book showcases Britain's most beautiful and dramatic scenery through the eyes of the nation's best amateur and professional photographers.
When the winners were announced in October, we published a gallery of the judges' choices. Now we present the IBTimes UK picture desk's own favourites – from snow-covered Highland mountains to misty woodland scenes.
