On loan from the Natural History Museum in London, this world-renowned exhibition will showcase 100 awe-inspiring photographs, taken from beneath the freezing Antarctic ice to the shimmering heat of Okaukuejo Camp in Namibia.
Judged by a panel of industry-recognised professionals, images were taken by some of the world’s best nature photographers and selected for their creativity, artistry and technical complexity.
One of the winning images is by Australian author, explorer and conservation photographer Michael Aw. His image, A whale of a mouthful, shows an imposing Bryde’s whale, ripping through a mass of sardines and gulping hundreds in a single pass.
The competition was launched in 1965 and now receives over 42,000 entries from 96 countries highlighting its enduring appeal. There are 21 categories for both adults and younger photographers exploring the world’s natural environment.
The Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition opened on 23 June 2016.
Wildlife Photographer of the Year is developed and produced by the Natural History Museum, London.
