The winners and finalists of the 2022 Urban Wildlife Photography Awards have been announced. The competition was organized by London-based photography platform, Picfair. Over 6,000 photographers from every country and territory entered their favorite images of wild animals either in cities or with them in the backdrop.
Andrew Interisano, an amateur photographer who works in digital advertising by day, was declared the Overall Winner for his capture of two coyotes wandering a street in Ontario, Canada, at night.
‘I thought it was my car that had caught their attention as I rounded the corner, and maybe it had at first, but as I rolled down the window I heard it was another group of howling coyotes that had piqued their interest. I parked, turned the engine off, and frantically went to work with the camera… however, in the rush of that moment I was soon compelled to put my camera down and soak in the scene,’ Interisano says of his winning image.
All winning and finalist images for this free-to-enter competition can be viewed in Picfair’s gallery. Proceeds from sales benefit global conservation non-profit Re:Wild.
