Are you into nature photography?



Manuel Presti, from Italy, wins the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2005 for his swirling image of a flock of starlings evading a peregrine falcon. The WPY is jointly organised each year by the Natural History Museum and BBC Wildlife Magazine.







Martyn Colbeck, from the UK, took this stunning and evocative image of elephants on his birthday. Mount Kilimanjaro is more than 25 miles away. This moment of magic wins Martyn the Nature In Black And White category.








Ruben Smit, from The Netherlands, wins the Animal Behaviour: All Other Animals category. To get this image of mating toads, Ruben pushed his camera into the pond in a watertight housing. So frenzied is the activity down there that toads tried to mate with his hands.
