Kuwaiti Wins Wildlife Photographer of the Year

Kuwaiti photographer Majed Alza’abi won the Natural History Museum’s “Wildlife Photographer of the Year” competition. The competition which is held yearly since back in 1965 is considered to be one of the largest wildlife photography competitions in the world.

Majed’s photo came first in the Animal Portraits category. He had trekked for four hours to meet Kibande, an almost-40-year-old mountain gorilla before capturing the winning photograph. I had to crop the photo to fit the blog but you can check out the full photo on Majed’s instagram account @majedphotos.

that’s really awesome.
just note that he won in one of the categories and not the whole competition as one might understand from your sentence (won the Natural History Museum’s “Wildlife Photographer of the Year” competition) .
There are several winners according to the different categories.
but still its really awesome and great talent.

Maybe if you read the post before commenting you would have gotten to the part where I say “Majed’s photo came first in the Animal Portraits category.”
