"Triplets" by Wilfried Dunckel, third place at this years competition
© Wilfried DunckelSunbathing seals, ruffs in combative mood and a delicate coming-together of common blue butterflies: 892 nature enthusiasts set out on a photographic walk on the wild side for this year's "European Nature Treasures" photo competition, putting Europe's natural wonders artistically, amusingly and dramatically in the spotlight. The competition, which is celebrating its 25th birthday this year, has become a veritable institution amongst Europe's nature photography competitions and year after year impressively showcases how diverse our continent’s fauna, flora and landscapes are. The twelve award-winning photographs will grace the large-format EuroNatur wall calendar, which is available to pre-order in the EuroNatur-Shop now.
