Vote for the wildlife photograph of the year

Nature fans from around the world are invited to vote for their favourite image to win the Wildlife Photographer of the Year People’s Choice Award.
Water features in many of the 25 shortlisted images, including a mudskipper fish defending its territory in Roebuck Bay, Australia; a grizzly bear fishing for salmon in the Chilko River, Canada; moon jellyfish swarming in a fjord in Norway; and a turtle playfully interacting with a dragonfly in Jezreel Valley, Israel.

The photographs were chosen by the Natural History Museum, London, and an international judging panel from 49,957 entries from 95 countries.
Douglas Gurr, director of the Natural History Museum says, “Wildlife Photographer of the Year’s People’s Choice Award always offers an astounding selection of images, and this year is no different.
"We invite the public to join the jury and vote for their favourite. Whether breathtaking beauty or a powerful story, it’s sure to be a difficult decision.”

The public can vote for their favourite image either online at www.nhm.ac.uk/wpy/peoples-choice
or in person at the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition at the Natural History Museum. Voting closes on 31 January 2024.

The winner and top four images will be announced in February 2024 and displayed online, joining the winners of the 59th competition announced earlier this year.


The 60th Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition is currently open for entries to photographers of all ages, nationalities and experience until 7 December 2023.
