photo COMPETITION JUDGING
Over the past 20 years, I have judged most of the world's top nature photography competitions. As Editor of BBC Wildlife Magazine, I helped the Natural History Museum to make the Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition the one to win. In 2019, I helped Wildscreen launch its first-ever Photo Panda Awards to create a platform where more stories can be told to protect the natural world.
