A PHOTOGRAPHER took a step back in time to scoop this month’s top prize in The Northern Echo’s Winning Smile competition.

The competition invited readers to submit a smiley picture to be in with the chance of winning monthly prizes of a £50 Marks and Spencer voucher or £25 iTunes voucher, as well as the opportunity to win an overall prize of a digital SLR camera.

Mr Fletcher said: “It was just an in the moment, grab shot.” He wins £50 Marks & Spencer vouchers.
