Ocean Photographer of the Year 2024: See stunning photos of hungry whale, surfing seagull, freaky fish babies, land-loving eel and adorable toxic octopus

Baby fish with wide-eyes sat on orange egg sacs.

A hungry whale mid-gulp, a lazy seagull riding a sea turtle, an adorable-yet-deadly mini octopus and a group of alien-looking fish babies fused to eggs were some of the stars of a recent ocean photography competition.

The stunning images were among those short-listed at the 2024 Ocean Photographer of the Year awards. The winners of the competition, which is run by Oceanographic Magazine and sponsored by the Swiss watch company Blancpain, were announced Thursday (Sept. 12) at an event in London's Somerset House.
