Ocean Photography Contest Highlights Urgent Conservation Issues

The annual Ocean Photographer of the Year contest, presented by Oceanographic magazine and Blancpain, showcases stunning visuals that emphasize the critical state of our oceans.

Finalists explore diverse themes including Adventure, Human Connection, and Conservation, with a focus on Hope and Impact. This dual approach aims to foster a deeper understanding of both the beauty and the challenges our oceans face.

Will Harrison, the contest's founder, emphasizes the importance of these images, stating, “These photographs don’t just capture what’s beneath the surface; they surface the stories our planet most needs us to hear.” Winners will be announced in September, with all finalists available for viewing online.
