The late Pete Seeger has been celebrated by musicians, singers, fans and his own family as they honoured him at the Radio 2 Folk Awards.
The event at London's Royal Albert Hall on Wednesday night climaxed with a performance by his half-sister, US singer Peggy Seeger, who sang his song Quite Early Morning.
Seeger, one of the world's best-known ambassadors for traditional music and a lifelong political activist, died last month at the age of 94.
The BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards are an annual celebration, bringing together some of the biggest names to recognise achievements over the past 12 months in the UK's thriving folk scene, as well as giving awards to honour outstanding lifetime contributions.
Folk supergroup The Full English, whose members have included luminaries such as Martin Carthy and Seth Lakeman, were among the big winners, taking a pair of prizes. They took the best group award and their self-titled release was named best album.
There had already been cause for celebration for the group's veteran guitarist Carthy, who was one of two recipients of pre-announced lifetime achievement awards at the ceremony.
Musician Lisa Knapp took the best original song prize for her composition about Alzheimer's Disease, called Two Ravens, and Bella Hardy was named folk singer of the year.
Guests at the 4500-capacity event saw performances by artists such as Bellowhead, Suzanne Vega, Clannad, Martin Simpson, Anais Mitchell & Jefferson Hamer, and The Full English.
Shanty singers The Fisherman's Friends stepped back into the spotlight to perform for the first time since the deaths of band member Trevor Grills and tour manager Paul McMullen last year.
The other lifetime achievement award went to Irish group Clannad, with honorary prizes going to the Cambridge Folk Festival - taking the "good tradition" award - and folk archivist Cecil Sharp who was inducted into the event's hall of fame.
The awards - now in its 15th year - was a little overshadowed by being scheduled at the same time as the Brit Awards.
