A New Zealand fur seal relaxes on the rocks at Antipodes Island. “I had no idea that there was so much more down there; you think of it as just ocean,” he says. “Fundamentally though, it really is.

He took along his mum, Wellington Oriental rug and carpet restorer Anna Williams (Rob Suisted, the 2019 winner of the award, was there too).
