Honorable Mention

Picture of Mothers with their babies. As a wildlife photographer, I am inspired by the resilience animals have to demonstrate in the environment we are constantly shaping around them. the bond between them serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of all living beings

The beauty of our planet's wildlife is a reflection of the delicate balance of nature. Through my lens, I aim to capture the raw emotions and interactions of animals in their natural habitats, showcasing their importance in our ecosystem. Ultimately, telling the stories of these creatures and showing their beauty, quirkiness, and personality is a wonderful way to encourage more understanding, care, interest, and concern for them. various ways to express my creativity, it is only in the past 4 years that I developed a strong attraction for wildlife photography. Previously a landscape photographer, I found that creating a connection with the subject and telling a story that moved people was a lot more satisfying, as I had the power to change behavior and show others what was all around them, that they often don't see. It has also forced me to slow down and develop a level of awareness of my surroundings that has changed the way I look at the world around me.
