“A truly excellent nature photograph is always a message that can inform us about many things. It is a window into the secrets of nature, revealing the essence behind the spectacle, capturing moments that happen so fast that our eyes cannot follow them, but which, if we think about it, allow us to see the recent past or even the future,” emphasized Zsolt Kalotás, president of the jury.
