The GDT demands and fosters nature photography that commits itself equally to authenticity, unconditional nature conservation and artistic quality. On this ground the GDT hosts the renowned competition European Wildlife Photographer of the Year (EWPY). From more than 18 000 entries every year, an international specialist jury selects the ten best images in nine categories as well as the winners of the Fritz Pölking Prize. This exhibitions presents the winning images. Sabine Riewenherm of the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation has been the patron of the competition.
The exhibitions consist of 89 photographs each. In each category one winning photo and a runner-up as well as eight highly commended images are being presented. In addition there is the European Wildlife Photographer of the Year, i.e. the overall winner of the competition and 4 photographs from the Fritz Pölking Prize (FPP).
