The winners of the 3^rd annual 2016 International Landscape Photographer of the Year (ILPOY) competition have been announced and all of them capture nature at its very best. The contest is a celebration of the most imaginative, artistic and inspirational landscape images of the past year, and will result in a commemorative book that will be available shortly, featuring the top 101 images of the competition.

Once the temperature drops, and flowers and insects disappear, many avid macro photographers stow their close-up gear until the coming of spring. But as you’ll see in the video below, winter is actually a great time to capture creative macro photos if you know what to look for and how to get the shot.

Here’s a little something for the photographer (or yourself) who has everything: A stylish flask that looks like a vintage camera. Available from Graham & Green, the Snapshot Camera Hip Flask is easily filled by unscrewing the “shutter release button” and holds 11 oz. of your favorite libation.

The results of the 57th Annual World Press Photo Contest were just announced and the winning images provide a visual treat for anyone who loves photography. The winners were selected from almost 100,000 photos submitted by almost 5,800 hundred photographers from 132 nationalities.
