Spirit of Sherborne

Sherborne Museum invited people to capture life in Sherborne today for the museum archive.
As well as looking at the past, the museum also records the present for future generations to enjoy.
The winner was Jonathan Hill whose themed collection of pictures entitled 'Spirit of Sherborne' has been on display in the museum during the 2009 season and at the library where he is pictured with Library Manager Janet Coyne.
The photographs will then form part of the museum archive.
