Our Travel Photographer of the Year 2017

 

We take photos as a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone...

One of our Travel Counsellors, Cork-based Niamh Quinlan, was declared the winner of the 2017 ITTN+EMIRATES Travel Photographer of the Year Award at Friday night’s Gala Dinner event. Niamh’s winning photo, Hitching A Ride On Rossbeigh, was taken on Rossbeigh Beach, Co Kerry. She was presented with tickets for two to any destination on the Emirates worldwide network by Enda Corneille, Country Manager, Emirates, the competition’s sponsor. 

The competition was held over five months, from June to October. Each month’s entries were judged by Anita Thomas, Sales Manager Ireland, Emirates; Neil Steedman, News & Features Editor, ITTN; and Michael Flood, Editor, ITTN. In addition, a sixth finalist was chosen by ITTN readers from all 250 entries. Each finalist received a trophy, a voucher for €200 and an invitation to the Gala Dinner from Emirates.

We are so proud of you Niamh and we cannot wait to find out where you decide to fly to with Emirates!
