Explore the world without getting on a plane at this free exhibition of awe-inspiring images. The winning entries of the Travel Photographer of the Year 2016 are on display at the University of Greenwich. What began in Chris and Karen Coe’s kitchen in 2003 has grown to become a highly regarded photography prize receiving entries from over 100 countries. See fiery lava flows, a magical, snow-swirled New York street scene and get face-to-face with an elusive, endangered Iberian lynx. Often the images are the result of both extreme luck and extreme skill, not only do you have to be in the right place at the right time, you need to be ready to press the button and have remembered to take off the lens cap.
You’re guaranteed to leave feeling inspired to snap and shoot so it’s worth flagging up the closing date for the 2017 edition: September 25. For details visit http://www.tpoty.com/awards/how-to-enter
