Winners of the 2025 National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest
In 2015, the National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest received more than 17,000 entries from photographers around the world. Grand-prize winner Anuar Patjane Floriuk will get an eight-day
National Geographic Photo Expedition to Costa Rica and the Panama Canal. Here’s how he describes his winning photo: “Diving with a humpback whale and her newborn calf while they cruise around Roca Partida … in the Revillagigedo (Islands), Mexico. This is an outstanding and unique place full of pelagic life, so we need to accelerate the incorporation of the islands into UNESCO as (a) natural heritage site in order to increase the protection of the islands against the prevailing illegal fishing corporations and big-game fishing.”
