Annually, London's National History Museum declares the most impactful, striking wildlife images taken by photographers around the world. Each year, the results are wide-varying and significant, capturing the consequences of climate change, the beauty in the unknown, and the diversity of landscapes everywhere.
This year is no different. The 2023 winners turned their lenses to the swampy forests of Brazil, the birds within rainforests in French Guiana, the tiger reserves of Tamil Nadu, and the magic fungi in Mount Olympus, Greece. The photographs range from harrowing to simply beautiful, with winners declared in categories ranging from "Plants and Fungi" to "Urban Wildlife".
No matter what the subject, each is a feast for the eyes. Here are the winners.
