During lockdown, we have all had to find new ways to connect, have fun and keep active - and we asked you to help us record it, with our photo competition, Snapshot Kent.

You responded by sending us your pictures of what you were doing at home, from baking to painting and dance routines to clapping for carers.

We wanted Snapshot Kent to be a record of local life during the pandemic and a chance for us all - and future generations - to see how the people of Kent got through such extraordinary times.

Now that lockdown is beginning to be eased, it's time to pick a winner - who also gets the £50 prize.

Many pictures had stories with them of your experiences, and some turned into stories of their own. Some were of beautiful landscapes, others were families getting along - or missing other family members. They all brought joy to others, and it was a tough job to whittle down the entries to a shortlist of just 15.

For the shortlist, we chose photos which captured the spirit of lockdown, with key experiences we had all shared, from showing key workers that we cared, to Joe Wicks' morning workouts, and learning about social distancing - something we had not heard of until March this year.

We then asked our readers to vote for the winner online and it was a hard-fought contest, with some 1,000 votes cast.

After a last-minute surge, the winner - taking a whopping 60% of the votes - and winning the £50 prize, was two-year-old Logan's painted stones.

Logan had left a painted stone with a sign on a tree in Walderslade Woods for others to join in on their daily walk - and dozens had. Mum Danea said: "It is amazing that others have joined it, it brightens up your walk and brings a sense of community."

In second place was Nick McDonald's Great British Campout, encompassing the gratitude we felt for our key workers, raising funds for the NHS on his driveway, when lockdown was at its height.

In third place was Alison Barnatt's nightime photo taken in her garden of wildlife - a fox and a hedgehog - social distancing while eating the food she had left out for them.

She said: "It's important to not only look after ourselves but also our wildlife, especially at this time."
