Beautiful Winning Photos from the 2025 Nature inFocus Photography Awards
Photographer of the Year: “Echoes from the Eastern Ghats” by Rukhiya Mohammed
The Nature inFocus Photography Awards just revealed their 2025 winners, and the shots are unreal.
Sixteen incredible images capture everything from fierce predator portraits to emotional conservation stories to surreal, fantasy-like frames of nature. Each photo feels like a glimpse into something bigger—survival, connection, and the fragile balance that keeps our planet alive. What makes it even cooler is the range of techniques: some photographers waited for hours in the wild, others played with long exposures, underwater magic, or macro shots that turned tiny creatures into art. At the heart of it all, these awards aren’t just about stunning pictures—they’re about passion, patience, and reminding us why protecting the natural world matters.
