More than 4,000 entries were received from professional and amateur photographers around the world in this year’s landscape-photography competition. Judges of the 10th International Landscape Photographer of the Year contest narrowed the field down to a “Top 101” and then further, to award several category prizes and the International Landscape Photographer of the Year award, which went to Tony Hewitt. The organizers were once again kind enough to share some of this year’s top and winning images below.
