Jaguars in mangroves, dancing trees, grinning crocodiles, pink waterscapes, and flamingos reclaiming a lost habitat are some of the incredible and intriguing images from this year’s competition.
The Mangrove Photography Awards 2020, hosted by Mangrove Action Project, gives us a fascinating insight into the world of mangroves from all corners of the earth. Our 6th year of the competition has been the most exciting to date with new submission categories and four special judges; Cristina Mittermeier, Steve Winter, Octavio Aburto, and Jennifer Hayes.
The intimate relationships between wildlife, coastal communities and mangrove forests were captured by amateur and professional photographers from nearly 70 countries, as well as the fragility of these unique ecosystems from both above, and below, the water line.
Thank you and congratulations to everyone who took part this year. We received 1,122 photo submissions and please do visit the following page to see the best photos: mangroveactionproject.org/202...
Note: Matt Potenski image Mangrove & Bulldozer was in fact a category winner!
