London , England ( CNN ) -- They are the iconic images of a thrilling 2009-10 soccer season in England that helped Bradley Ormesher claim his very own Premier League title . The Times newspaper photographer is one of a legion of snappers who pitch up at matches the length and breadth of England and -- come rain , come shine -- chronicle the many magic moments from a grueling , nine-month campaign . Ormesher 's hard graft and spectacular imagery reaped rewards this year when , for the second time since 2008 , he was crowned the Barclays Photographer of the Year , one of the most prestigious gongs in the field of football photography . The Manchester derby proved a rich hunting ground for Ormesher , whose portfolio of five photos features three from clashes between Manchester United and City . He captured the joy and despair on show from both sets of players after Paul Scholes 's injury-time goal secured a victory for United at City to keep Alex Ferguson 's title hopes alive , and Rio Ferdinand 's pained reaction after Craig Bellamy had scored in the return fixture at Old Trafford . Ormesher also snapped Blackburn goalkeeper Paul Robinson laughing in the middle of an August rainstorm , Fernando Torres holding off Rio Ferdinand prior to scoring for Liverpool and a sea of delighted faces at Everton , after Jack Rodwell had just scored the clinching goal in their win over Manchester United . Here the man who created the images talks to Fanzone about the inspiration behind the photos and how he achieved an award-winning end product .
