People's Choice: Wildlife Photographer of the Year

Environmental & Science Education, Art & Environment 

The winner of Wildlife Photographer of the Year People's Choice Award 2021. 

About the image, photographer Cristiano Vendramin (Italy) said , "' I believe having a daily relationship with nature is increasingly necessary to have a serene and healthy life.

"Nature photography is therefore important to remind us of this bond, which we must preserve, and in whose memory we can take refuge."

Four finalists were also Highly Commended.

All five images can be seen here. I found the top selection difficult to leave and to get on to business.

Wildlife Photographer of the year is an annual contest of the Natural History Museum, London. There are some details at the BBC link.
