The World might be in the midst of a pandemic but that's not stopped photographers capturing some incredible, and varied, images for this year's Sony World Photography Awards (SWPA).

The winner's gallery for the '2021 National & Regional Awards Winners' is now live on the SWPA website and entries range from black & white architecture to landscapes with a bird's eye view. There are also some amazing examples of wildlife photography with a majestic fox particularly capturing our eye.

"The National & Regional Awards supports photographers of all abilities worldwide and celebrates their achievements," SWPA.

Selected from entries to the Open competition, the National Award winners are given Sony digital imaging kit plus global and local exposure, the programme has rewarded more than 500 photographers and currently operates in 51 countries. Over 330,000 images from 220 territories were submitted to the Sony World Photography Awards 2021 and over 165,000 were entered to the Open competition (from which the National Awards winner was selected).

This is an aerial photograph of a mountain road in Hakone, Japan. The path, when seen from the sky, looked like a snake. Photographed in autumn, the leaves of the coloured trees were extremely beautiful.

The overall winners in the Student, Youth, Open and Professional competition of the Sony World Photography Awards 2021 will be announced on the 15 April 2021 via the World Photography Organisation's digital and video platforms.

Some of the amazing imagery is shared below but do take a look at the SWPA website where you can view all of the winning entries.
