We look forward to receive the most beautiful and spectacular photos of animals, plants or landscapes in Europe. No matter if the breathtaking display flight of white-tailed eagles, a tree frog bathing in duckweeds or stunning waterfalls framed by the flaming colours of an autumn forest: it's your personal view of the outstanding in Europe's flora and fauna we ask for. 

For the 19th time already, EuroNatur, in cooperation with Deutsche Lufthansa AG, "natur+kosmos" and NaturVision, arranges this important nature photo competition. It's worth the effort: you stand a chance to win attractive prizes such as travels and other valuable, non-cash prizes. So start your personal photo safari and send us your discoveries captured on camera!
