David took the image in his garden with the ladybird on a tulip, and he believes "strong colour" is key.

He said: "I have been taking photos for too many years and I always have my camera out with me because when you don't, you always see the best pictures. You don't need to own top equipment, you just need a good eye of what will make a good picture.

"I really enjoy taking images of Cleethorpes beach and nature shots.

"I always send pictures to the Grimsby Telegraph and I think Camera Club is a great idea. I regularly get picked for Picture Of The Day, which is great, but this is even better getting a canvas."

Paul Burgess, the manager of Comley Cameras, in St Peter's Avenue, Cleethorpes, judged the images.

He said: "There was a good selection of images and we always look out for unusual pictures which stand out.

"David's picture stood out for us with a fantastic composition and it looks great as a canvas.

"It is very sharp and different."
