Ancient Forest Alliance photographer TJ Watt's award-winning image of a giant old-growth cedar on Flores Island in Clayoquot Sound was also featured in The Guardian alongside the other winning images from the Earth Photo 2024 contest.
A photograph of a solitary man walking along terraces in China, rust-red rivers in Alaska and a gargantuan western red cedar are among the winning images of the Earth Photo 2024 competition. The award – created in 2018 by Forestry England, the UK’s Royal Geographic Society and visual arts consultancy Parker Harris – aims to showcase the beauty of our planet, as well as the threats it is facing, from climate change to toxic pollution.
