Canadian photographer Thomas Vijayan won the title for 2021 with his image The World is Going Upside Down of a Borneo orangutan seemingly climbing a tree but on closer inspection is a reflection in the water below the tree. The Nature TTL (Through The Lens) Photographer Of The Year Awards celebrate the very best in nature photography, and this year more than 8,000 images competed in categories ranging from animal portraits to underwater and landscape.
