A sunrise on the Atacama desert in Chile and an elm tree in a snow storm are among the four winning images that have helped to crown Andrew Mielzynski as International Landscape Photographer of the Year 2024.
Mielzynski, from Canada, was named this week as the overall winner of the contest, which is now in its eleventh year. More than 3,600 images from all over the world were submitted this time around.
Other striking landscapes to be photographed included the Yangykala Canyon in Turkmenistan (pictured above) and the Arita Cone [a conical geological formation] in La Puna Argentina, both by Ignacio Palacios, who is based in Australia and who came in second place. Third place went to Gheorghe Popa of Romania. Entrants were asked to submit at least four shots.
