The amazing winning photos in the 2022 'Capturing Ecology' competition
The amazing winning photos in the 2022 'Capturing Ecology' competition
BY EARTH TOUCH NEWS DECEMBER 06 2022
Photos of a sinister-looking tree frog, an eagle clutching its prey, and a surprise attack from a hungry mama leopard were all among the finalists in the 2022 British Ecological Society’s annual photography competition, ‘Capturing Ecology’. Snapped by ecologists and students around the world, the winning images celebrate the planet’s diverse flora and fauna.
A light in the shadows
Overall winner
The glowing golden eyes of a Helena's tree frog pierce the darkness as it perches on a mossy tree in the Peruvian jungle of Tambopata.

Takeout
Student winner
In a chaotic scene, a bald eagle – clutching its prey – tries to avoid a flock of western gulls circling above.

Also picking up an accolade was Sam Eberhard's photo of a bald eagle carrying its prey among a flock of angry gulls. "'Takeout' is a frozen moment of intense action at Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach, Oregon. A bald eagle has seized a common murre from the top of the rock and is making away with its meal amidst a mobbing of western gulls," says Eberhard, whose image earned him the title of 'Overall student winner of Capturing Ecology 2022'.
Here's a look at some of the other winning and highly commended photos from this year's competition:
Wild pearls
Winner, Up Close and Personal
A gold-striped salamander is nestled amongst a jumble of eggs, easily mistakable for a collection of pearls.

Night Guardian
Winner, Individuals & Populations
Speckled with shades of brown and green, a smooth helmeted iguana is hard to spot as it grabs hold of a mossy green tree trunk.

Calling out into darkness
Highly Commended, Individuals & Populations
Clinging to a thin branch, the red-eyed tree frog calls out for a mate illuminated in vivid shades of red, blue and green against the dark black cover of night.

Rescue mission: Swimmers race to save tangled blue shark in Italy
Rescue mission: Swimmers race to save tangled blue shark in Italy
BY SARAH KEARTES AUGUST 27 2015
When swimmers along Italy's Porto Pollo beach noticed a blue shark (Prionace glauca) making small circles close to shore, they were initially concerned for their own safety. But that concern quickly shifted when they realised the stressed animal was tangled in fishing gear. To the applause of tourists, several locals managed to bring the beautiful shark ashore, remove the hook and line, and release it safely back into the wild.
