Highlights
The Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition is now in its 55th year and attracts tens of thousands of submissions from photographers of all ages and skill levels.
Reflecting on the astonishing diversity of our natural world, competition categories include Animal Portraits, Urban Wildlife, Behaviour of Birds, and Under Water, while a hard-hitting documentary section features two photojournalism portfolios.
With the winning photographs selected for their artistic composition, technical innovation, and truthful interpretation of the natural world, the exhibition showcases the winners and finalists whose work calls attention to the beauty and fragility of this world.
Winning the Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition is the highest level of recognition for wildlife photographers. Judged over two rounds by a jury of international experts, competition finalists and winners are announced at an awards ceremony hosted at the Natural History Museum in London, where photographs are premiered in a major exhibition before embarking on a world tour.
Wildlife Photographer of the Year offers photographers an internationally acclaimed platform to showcase their work, while celebrating and calling attention to our beautiful and precious Earth.
The ROM Wildlife Photographer of the Year contest returns for a fifth year! Whether you’re an amateur or professional photographer, the ROM invites you to share your captivating images of the natural world for a chance to win some amazing prizes and have your photograph on display at the Museum.
