The 100 winning images from the Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition are on display at Seaton Tramway until April 23.

The exhibition, on loan from the Natural History Museum, is a collection of exceptional images from all over the world.

The competition aims to use photography's emotive power to engage and inspire audiences, shine a light on stories and species around the world, and raise awareness of endangered wildlife.

The competition was launched in 1965 and now receives entries from more than 90 countries. Every entry was judged anonymously on its creativity, originality, and technical excellence by an international panel of industry experts, with the winners announced last October.

Dr Doug Gurr, Director of the Natural History Museum said: “Captured by some of the best photography talent from around the world, the 100 photographs encourage curiosity, connection and wonder.

“These inspiring images convey human impact on the natural world in a way that words cannot – from the urgency of declining biodiversity to the inspiring bounce back of a protected species.”
