Twitcher and 2015’s ANZANG Photographer of the Year, David Stowe won a $20,000 trip to the subantarctic islands with Heritage Expeditions on the Galapagos of the Southern Ocean expedition for his winning shot of a tern. In December and January he travelled by boat from New Zealand through to the subantarctic, stopping at The Snares, Auckland Islands, Macquarie Island and Campbell Island. On the way he was able to dip his toes into incredibly biodiverse UNESCO World Heritage sites, known as some of the most significant natural habitats on the planet. The 2016 ANZANG Nature Photographer of the Year competition is now open for entries.
