    Photo exhibition

The exhibition shows the winning images from the international "Highlights" photo competition. The photos, awarded prizes in nine categories, show breathtaking images of animals and nature.

The Glanzlichter nature photography competition has been celebrating and showcasing the special beauty of nature for over two decades, making many thousands of people aware of how fragile and in need of protection the natural wonder worlds, animals and plants have become. Photography - and only photography - is able to condense the events in the natural cosmos into unique visual experiences - and create "highlights".
