The Grand Prize of the World Nature Photographer Awards (WNPA) this year has been awarded to British photographer Tracey Lund for her image of two underwater gannets fighting for a fish off the coast of the Shetland Islands.

The mission of the World Nature Photography Awards is to celebrate the world’s best nature photographers while showcasing nature’s beauty to a wider audience.

The overall and category winners were chosen from a pool of thousands of entries fielded from all around the globe. The winner took home $1,000.

If you are interested in bringing any of these photographs (or other winners) into your home, visit the WNPA store. They plant a tree for every order received.
