Athena nature photo contest - the results

Dear nature lovers and photographers,

The suspense is at an end! After a wonderful year full of vote counting, jury deliberations and, fair is fair, a tad too many moments of enjoying your beautiful photos (for which we sincerely apologize for the delay 😅), we can finally announce our winners of last year's Athena Nature Photo Contest!

✨ And the winners are... ✨

• Best Close-Up Photo: "Flower Bud Wild Pea "* - by Guy Adams
  A work of art on a microscale! Guy captures the magic of the Wild Pea with a keen eye for detail.
• Best Animal Photo: "Bluethroat ready for take off"-by Marc
  Perfect timing, a Bluebird ready to take off, as if inviting us for an adventure.
• Best Landscape Photo: "Hiking Trail Sheep Kalmthoutse Heide "* - by Philippe Steingueldoir
  Philippe takes us on a walk in the Border Park Kalmthoutse Heide, the silence is almost audible.
• Best Mushroom Photo: "Lampshade" - by Philippe Steingueldoir
  Once again Philippe, giving us a glimpse into the magical world of mushrooms with this fairy-tale picture.

All winners will receive a specially curated goodie bag filled with new, fun Athena items as a thank you for their fantastic contribution and enthusiasm!

Thank you to everyone who shared their unique view of nature. And a heartfelt thank you to all those who voted.

You made this contest a success!

Until next year! 🧡
