A collection of new animal and wildlife images taken by photographers across the globe has been released as part of the world's largest photo competition.
The 15 snaps were submitted as part of the ‘animal’ category in last year’s CEWE Photo Award, which aimed to celebrate the best in photography across the globe.

The competition was open to everyone — from keen amateur photographers to established professionals.
Entrants were asked to submit photos that celebrated the competition’s ‘Our World is Beautiful’ theme. There were ten categories for budding photographers to enter – from aerial shots and animals to landscapes, travel and culture.
- Wait for me! A penguin looks hopeful to join a group of people to travel on an adventure.

A photo expert at CEWE UK, said:
“The animal category is always one that provides stunning images that truly celebrate the beauty of the world.
“We’ve really enjoyed seeing people’s entries to the CEWE Photo Award and are looking forward to sharing more breath-taking images from all categories soon.”
In spring this year, the CEWE Photo Award will be returning for a fifth year, where photographers across the globe will once again be able to submit entries across ten categories highlighting the true beauty of the world around us.
