This striking image by Peter was taken at the British Library in central London. As he explains, ‘It was closing time and I took the opportunity whilst leaving the building.’ It’s a lesson in being prepared to take a shot when opportunity strikes. He uploaded his picture to Instagram using the hashtag #appicoftheweek. See more of Peter’s pictures on his Instagram @p.murrell where he describes himself as ‘a photographer with a day job’.

We also likedÉ Brown Hare in the Crops by Richard Campion Canon 7D Mark II, 263mm, 1/640sec at f/5, ISO 500 Richard is an amateur wildlife photographer based in Jersey. He can usually be found belly-down on the edge of a field photographing hares or sat on a riverbank looking for dippers. He says, ‘Last year I spent five days in Derbyshire photographing wildlife on my grandparents’ farm. On the final morning of my short stay this hare came bounding down the field straight towards me. I was able to get a number of images that I was really pleased with, before the hare decided to wander off back up the field and all the time remaining unaware of my presence.’ Chosen by Amy Davies, Features Editor 12
