A stunning array of images showing nature in all its glory from dancing insects to a magnificent meteor have been selected as winners in the annual Glanzlichter photo contest. A picture of a large brown bear and a tiny bird taken in Slovenia came top in the nature competition, which has been held for the last 21 years and is open to photographers from around the world. Michaela Walch, from Austria, spent five hours waiting in a hide to capture the incredible photo, which she called David and Goliath.

British artist Mister Finch at the launch of his new exhibition at Yorkshire Sculpture Park. More than 75 individual soft sculptures showcase Finch?s masterful combination of up-cycled and new materials, from discarded wire, steel and wood, to vintage tapestries, cross stitch samplers, tablecloths, antique silverware and rescued cloth. The self-taught artist has drawn inspiration from British folklore, the historic Bretton Estate and Yorkshire wildlife to create his textile wonders. Finch?s Gothic fairytale centres around the story of The Wish Post, a magical kingdom of woodland animals whose job it is to collect and sort other creatures? wishes, which are breathed into envelopes and posted in toadstool postboxes.

Fuzzberta and toadstool
The adventures of Fuzzberta and MiniGuineaPig, Pacifica, California, America - Jul 2015
FULL COPY: http://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/qnd3
These gorgeous guinea pigs have gained thousands of fans - thanks to their hilarious costumes.
Fuzzberta and her big sister MiniGuineaPig - MGP for short - have appeared in outfits ranging from Harry Potter to Abraham Lincoln.
The furry girls both girls, MGP is 4 and Fuzzberta is 2 and a half, have also appeared as cowgirls, Pokemon, a shark, a chef and even a Star Wars Ewok.
Their owner, Monica Wu, says she started simply snapping pics of Fuzzberta with her phone, and the idea escalated.
The graphic designer, who lives in Pacifica, California, explains: "In the beginning it was just silly cell phone shots of her looking cute, then tiny props started working their way into it, and after a while I switched to my actual camera.
"Fuzzberta is incredibly photogenic. So she's really easy to photograph. Also, she'll let you do anything as long as you're feeding her a steady supply of carrot chips."

Epic quest to find the world's forgotten frogs
Epic quest to find the world's forgotten frogs
Four years ago, conservationist and photographer Robin Moore embarked on the largest global quest for species lost to science. Accompanied by over 120 scientists in 21 countries, he went in search of frogs and salamanders last seen between 15 and 160 years ago.
The four-year quest has produced some surprising rediscoveries, including the Ventriloqual Frog from Haiti, capable of throwing its voice, and the Borneo Rainbow Toad, unseen in 87 years, and remarkable new species such as the "Monty Burns Toad" from Colombia which bears a striking similarity with the nefarious villain from the Simpsons.
Moore's fascinating new book, In Search of Lost Frogs, tells the story of the quest - its highs and lows, failures and discoveries, and the campaign's ongoing work - in a 70,000 work narrative wrapped around over 400 striking photographs.
As we lament the rampant loss of species in the midst of the sixth mass extinction - with amphibians at the forefront as the most threatened vertebrate group - Moore believes that hope is as important as despair in motivating people to care. "As conservationists we often get so caught up in communicating what it is that we are losing that we forget to instill a sense of hope," Moore says. "We need to revel in the weird and the wonderful, the maligned and the forgotten, for our world is a richer more wondrous place for them. Stories and images of discovery and rediscovery can help us to reconnect with our inner explorer - they can make us feel part of a bigger, wilder world. Rekindling a connection with the world beyond our concrete boxes is the key to caring about the way we are treating our natural world."
