Wildlife Photographer of the Year: People’s Choice shortlist

Posted by Kati Auld on 9 July 2014

Ever wondered how and why some wildlife photographers get all the breaks? Now’s your chance to have a say.

Wildlife Photographer of the Year is in its 50th year, and they’ve decided to do something new by opening up a People’s Choice category. This means that instead of doughy fellows with monocles, every citizen of the Internet gets a say. That’s the catch, though, with democracy – you only get to vote once, so make your decision very, very carefully. Here are my top 10 choices, but have a look at all 50 photos in the gallery if you want your brain to be blown with beauty.
(Update: The 2014 Wildlife Photographer of the Year winners have been announced).
