From January to March 2021, the Rotary Club of Knighton and District called upon budding young photographers aged 6 to 18 years old to enter their best photographs in the “Nature on your Doorstep” themed competition. Rotary Club Youth coordinator Sheila Smith said: “We were delighted with the response to this event and with the quality of the photographs we received from 18 young photographers in all age groups.” Sheila added “Everybody gave explanations of why their photos meant so much to them, which aided the judges in their decision-making process.” The competition closed on March 22 and the judges Cathy Jones, Larry Smart and Sheila Smith then had the challenge of choosing the first three places in each age group. Rotary member Larry Smart said “The quality of the entries was very good, and it was difficult to choose between them, but we are happy with our decisions”

Huge lizards called Komodo dragons have lived for hundreds of thousands of years on a handful of islands in Indonesia. It’s their only home.
But over the past century, habitat loss and hunting have threatened the iconic species. And now climate change could drive it to extinction.
Alice Jones of the University of Adelaide in Australia says rising seas will likely flood many areas where the dragons live.
“They seem to be in these low-lying valleys, which are separated by tall mountains,” she says. “And they don’t really like to live on the steep slopes.”
