Organized by the German Society for Nature Photography (GDT) since 2001, this is one of the most photo competitions thanks to its highly qualified jury, stringent selection criteria, and ban on digital manipulation.
Celebrating innovation, creativity and daring compositions, it's a trendsetter for modern nature photography. An exhibition of the 104 prize-winning images is touring through Germany and several other European countries.
The German Society for Nature Photography (GDT) European Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2025 is now open for entries, with a special anniversary edition of the competition celebrating 25 years.
