Photo of runaway military horses bolting through London up for award
The picture is one of 15, chosen by a panel of judges, from which people can vote for the IMAGO Photograph of the Year at the annual UK Picture Editors' Guild Awards.
A picture of a smiling Princess of Wales, dressed in green, at Sandringham on Christmas Day is among the others shortlisted.
There is also a photo of Reform UK leader Nigel Farage having milkshake thrown in his face, a dinghy filled with migrants crossing the English Channel, and rioters attacking a hotel housing asylum seekers.
Pictures of Novak Djokovic illuminated on a sunny Wimbledon Centre Court, former subpostmaster Sir Alan Bates, and a Red Arrows flypast marking the anniversary of D-Day, also made the shortlist, and a poignant final portrait of rugby league legend Rob Burrow, who died in June.
Daily and Sunday Telegraph picture editor Jason Green, who led the judging panel, said: 'This year's image selection showcases the diverse talents of UK photographers and highlights the vital role photojournalism plays across our entire industry.'
Almost 9,000 people from the UK, the US, Europe and Australia took part in the vote last year.
Voting for the award closes at noon on March 12, and the winning photographer will be announced on April 1.

Hugh Grant falls asleep at Wimbledon tennis match while seated behind Queen Camilla
Hugh Grant saw an opportunity for a snooze and he took it. While attending the 2025 Wimbledon Championships on Wednesday, the British actor - who was accompanied by his wife, Anna Eberstein - seemingly took a nap during the men's singles quarter-final match between Novak Djokovic and Flavio Cobolli, according to multiple videos and photos shared on X. The moment quickly went viral as Grant - who was donning a stylish pair of shades and wearing a dark blue suit - was seated directly behind Queen Camilla. HUGH GRANT BLASTS HIS CHILDREN'S 'POSH PRIVATE SCHOOLS' FOR 'PATHETIC' RULES "Not convinced Hugh Grant is awake," one viewer wrote on X. "Can someone check on him as he's a National treasure." "Fell asleep in front of the entire UK like it was nothing," another person penned. "Hugh Grant dozing off at Wimbledon is such a classic moment — even the thrill of Centre Court couldn't keep him awake through the match!" another wrote. LIKE WHAT YOU'RE READING?

Factories, Data Centers Will Get A Boost From The 'One Big, Beautiful Bill'
The manufacturing sector is set to get a big boost from President Donald Trump's 'One Big, Beautiful Bill,' which is likely to spur new waves of investment, especially in sectors like AI and biotechnology. The sprawling budget bill introduces a series of tax deductions and credits for businesses, especially those that invest in research and development (R&D), AI buildouts, and domestic factory construction. 'Likely beneficiaries of the law include industrial machinery manufacturers, heating and ventilation system providers, pharmaceutical innovators, semiconductor companies and major technology firms,' wrote Matt Hochstetler, equity portfolio manager at Capital Group. Bigger Up-Front Tax Breaks to Create Cash Flow One of the bill's main provisions benefiting manufacturing is a change to how quickly companies can claim tax breaks on investments in equipment, facilities, and production lines. The bill now lets companies deduct 100% of their investment in 'qualified production property' in the year it's paid for instead of spreading the deduction over several years. 'This measure could become a powerful tailwind for free cash flow and spur fresh waves of investment across multiple sectors, assuming overall debt levels don't drive interest rates too high,' Hochstetler wrote. Because both the factory itself and the machinery inside can be deducted immediately, some analysts said this could incentivize companies to build more of their supply chains in the U.S. 'This 'reshoring super-deduction' dramatically lowers the after-tax cost of domestic investment. This should encourage the onshoring of supply chains and manufacturing capacity and create more jobs for Americans,' wrote Brownstone Research Senior Analyst Nick Rokke. AI Will Be A Big Winner The bill offers immediate deductions for investments made into research and development, including retroactively from 2022. The bill also boosts the tax credit for semiconductor production to 35% from 25% previously. Together, these changes could provide a boon for AI production in the U.S., especially amid a surge in data center construction by companies like Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOG), Amazon (AMZN), and Meta Platforms (META). 'With new data center costs reaching into the tens of billions of dollars, the short-term tax savings are enormous,' Rokke wrote. 'This change alone frees up billions in cash flow for the hyperscalers. And that cash will almost certainly be reinvested into even more compute infrastructure.' Smaller Factories Get a Leg Up Another provision that could benefit manufacturers is the restoration of deductions based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or EBITDA. The Association of Manufacturing Technology (AMT) said this would allow for greater deductibility of interest expenses related to financing investments, acquisitions and expansions. The group also pointed to higher expensing limits for small businesses, which it said would allow for larger equipment purchases. 'This change dramatically increases the ability of small manufacturers to invest upfront in critical assets, leveling the playing field against larger competitors,' wrote Amber Thomas, AMT vice president of advocacy. An increase in the estate tax exemption is another benefit for small business owners, AMT pointed out. That provision could help family-owned manufacturing businesses pass on ownership without facing burdensome taxes. Read the original article on Investopedia Sign in to access your portfolio

Thune prepares senators to work first August weekend
Majority Leader John Thune warned senators in a closed-door lunch Tuesday to be ready for possible votes on nominations next weekend— taking them into August, three sources familiar with the discussion tell Axios. Why it matters: Thune is caught between President Trump's demand to cancel the August recess and a conference desperate to campaign, fundraise and talk to voters in their states. No plans are final. But no senator likes the idea of a potential Saturday vote in early August. The hope for GOP leaders is to reach an agreement with Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to allow for faster processing of Trump's nominees and limit the impact on recess. But the lunch warning is a clear sign that Thune is willing to test senators' pain tolerance in his pursuit of confirming more of Trump's nominees. Zoom in: Senators are still expected to have time at home this weekend, but they could be made to to stay in Washington Friday, Aug. 1 and beyond.
