I am both delighted, proud and humble to announce that I am a Highly Commended Photographer at Sony World Photography Awards 2016! The Sony World Photography Awards is the world’s biggest photography competition.

Having National Geographic photo-grapher Paul Nicklen as chair of the jury, a giant prize pool of USD 300,000 (!) and 28,578 participating photographs taken by 2,949 photographers off 88 countries, there is no doubt about neither the effort nor the success of Por El Planeta’s first nature photo contest. Also it is an honor to let you know that my image, “Quizzical Cat”, was awarded a 1st place as a Category Winner of Animal Portraits in this contest.
It is a pleasure to let you know I am one of 20 hand picked nature photographers contributing to Cheetah Conservation Fund’s (CCF) “Cheetahs Alive Photo Exhibition” in London.
