Wildlife Photographer of the Year is now in it's 60th Year.
Returning to Bristol Museum & Art Gallery! 100 stunning photographs showcasing Earth’s extraordinary diversity and highlighting the fragility of wildlife on our planet.
The world-renowned exhibition is on loan from the Natural History Museum in London and features exceptional images that capture fascinating animal behaviour, spectacular species and the breath-taking diversity of the natural world. Using photography’s unique emotive power to engage and inspire audiences, the images shine a light on stories and species around the world and encourage a future of advocating for the planet.
Established in 1965, it highlights exceptional talent worldwide. With 59,228 entries from 117 countries and territories all over the world, winning images are chosen for their creativity, originality and technical excellence by international experts.
