FROM Africa to the Arctic, the seas to the sky, these are some of the incredible pictures put forward for this year’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition.
Qing Lin, from China, captured these clown fish – just like the ones in the kids’ movie Finding Nemo – in Indonesia. Remarkably, each has the eyes of a parasitic isopod visible in its mouth.
There were almost 50,000 entries from professionals and amateurs from 92 countries for the annual competition.
The winners will be announced at London’s Natural History Museum on October 17 and an exhibition of the pictures will run from October 20.
Here we bring you a selection of the amazing submissions . . .
