The 26 photographers were shortlisted in a photography competition designed to raise the profile of UK manufacturing.

Their images will go on display in the House of Commons on 10 December, for one day only, before touring the UK next year.

The winners, which will be announced on the same day, are set to share £5,000 worth of Canon equipment.

The contest was hosted by manufacturers’ organisation EEF and asset finance provider Lombard.

‘This competition is about putting modern day manufacturing in the frame and capturing how innovative and exciting this industry is,’ said head of Lombard, Ian Isaac.

‘The standard gets better every year and all of the shortlisted photographers should be very proud that their images successfully capture the beauty and drama of industry.’
