If you wanted to see a world-renowned exhibition, you only have a few weeks left as it closes on October 8.
The Wildlife Photographer of the Year has been at the House of Manannan over summer as part of its tour from the Natural History Museum.
The Wildlife Photographer of the Year features 100 remarkable images from around the globe.
Laura McCoy, Curator for Natural History at Manx National Heritage said:
“It is an honour to host this spectacular exhibition, particularly as it carries such a powerful message about the importance of caring for our natural environment. The response from our community has been so enthusiastic – whether it be people with a passion for nature photography, or those looking for something out of the ordinary to brighten up their weekend.
We’ve welcomed approaching two thousand visitors to admire and absorb the exhibition. Now there’s only two weeks left, we anticipate many more will be coming to make sure they don’t miss out, or to enjoy it again before it goes.”
Winner of the award was ‘The big buzz’ by Karine Aigner, shot with a macro lens to show the frenzy of Texan cactus bees competing to mate.
This image, and all other prize winners, are among the 100 photographs on display at the House of Manannan.
Admission to the exhibition costs £3 - £5, with tickets available at the House of Manannan and www.manxnationalheritage.im.
