Geraint Roberts who took the photograph said: “I knew when I took the photograph that it was a great shot. Underneath the Arches is a spectacular event with a brilliant firework finale. I encourage everyone to keep on sending in those photographs particularly as we are now into the summer holidays and everyone will be out and about more.”

The Wonders of Wrexham 2018 Calendar competition was launched at the beginning of November by Wrexham Council following the news that North Wales is ranked fourth in the world of regions to visit.
