Wildlife Photographer of the Year People’s Choice Award

‘Ice Bed,’ Nima Sarikhani’s dreamy image of a young polar bear drifting to sleep on a bed carved into an iceberg, has been voted as the winner
of Wildlife Photographer of the Year People’s Choice Award.

Nima says: 'I am so honoured to have won this year's People’s Choice
award for WPY, the most prestigious wildlife photography competition.
This photograph has stirred strong emotions in many of those who have
seen it. Whilst climate change is the biggest challenge we face, I hope
that this photograph also inspires hope; there is still time to fix the
mess we have caused.'
