Bee-autiful photography

To mark Laudato Si’ Week and Biodiversity Week, both of which took place in May, the Jesuit Centre for Faith and Justice invited members of Jesuit schools and communities to submit their nature photographs for a competition.

Commenting on the competiton the center said “We were delighted by both the number and the quality of entries received from across Ireland. Choosing the winners was no easy task and we are very impressed with the range of flora and fauna to be found in our Jesuit communities, and we thank everyone who works hard to protect and respect our precious natural world.”
