EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by POA (Phot) Jonathan Hamlet, the mighty HMS Ark Royal takes center stage during Exercise Armatura Borealis 08. The image showcases a snow-covered flight deck party diligently tending to the Merlins of 824 NAS amidst the breathtaking Norwegian landscape. As dawn breaks over the icy horizon, the aircraft handlers on board HMS Ark Royal showcase their unwavering dedication and professionalism in extreme conditions. The flight deck is transformed into a winter wonderland, with snow-capped mountains serving as a stunning backdrop for this remarkable display of naval prowess. The photograph not only captures the raw beauty of nature but also highlights the immense challenges faced by those who serve in our armed forces. It serves as a testament to their resilience and adaptability, even in freezing temperatures and treacherous terrain. This extraordinary snapshot was taken during Exercise Armatura Borealis 08, where HMS Ark Royal operated off Norway's coast alongside 824 Squadron. As part of this exercise, they demonstrated their exceptional skills and readiness to protect our nation's interests at sea. POA (Phot) Jonathan Hamlet's composition perfectly encapsulates both the harshness and majesty of these Arctic conditions while honoring those who tirelessly work behind-the-scenes to ensure our safety. This powerful image has rightfully earned its place among other notable entries in the prestigious Peregrine Trophy 2008 competition held by the Royal Navy Photographic Competition.
