Royal stamp of approval for rainforest photographer

Posted by christian - 1 May 2009 at 11:02am - 4 Comments

Photographer Daniel Beltrá has often worked with us on forest and climate campaigns. He has just won the new Prince's Rainforests Project Award at the prestigious Sony World Photography Awards, and many of the prize-winning photos were taken while he was working on our campaigns in the Amazon and Indonesian rainforests.

Prince Charles, who has taken a keen interest in the state of the tropical rainforests, offered his own congratulations to Daniel:

As the winner of this award Daniel will receive funding to photograph the rainforests of the world, and the impacts of deforestation. The resulting images will be exhibited globally, and will form part of a book highlighting the plight of the world's rainforests. We wish Daniel all the best of luck with this project and look forward to seeing more of his outstanding images - some of which you can see below:
