The title of World Nature Photographer of the Year and a cash prize of $1,000 went to Amos Nachoum from the United States for his image ‘Facing reality.’ The image shows the amazing moment of a leopard seal about to capture a defenseless Gentoo penguin. Nachoum waited patiently for the low tide to arrive along a shallow lagoon on a remote island off the Antarctic Peninsula to capture this pic.
