EPOTY Competition Results 2011

'CIWEM's EPOTY competition goes from strength to strength. It exceeded all expectations with 10,000 entries from photographers in 105 different countries. This is twice the number of last year's entries. But, most pleasing of all, the quality of the photography continues to be of a very high standard. The range of subjects reflects a good understanding of the environmental challenges we face and a shared understanding of the power of the picture to tell the story.'   Judge Nick Reeves, CIWEM's Executive Director
