We Organized The 'Landscape 2020' Photography Competition And Here Are 50 Of The Best Entries

Location: Goblin Valley State Park, Emery, USA

@lukeylove’s landscape shot gathered the highest number of votes from the global community through the different voting rounds in the app, awarding him the #Landscape2020 contest’s $1,000 top prize.

"It was a totally unplanned shot on our American road trip, only made possible by the running speed, willingness, and full send it ability of my friend on the photo. What a blessing and a pleasure it is to be alive and to share this beautiful earth with you all! The future is bright when we shine our light."

"Some tulips, fog, and a windmill! I don’t think it can be any more Dutch than this."

@leemumford8 (Hong Kong)

Location: Zeebrugge, Belgium

"I went to the beach to photograph the fireworks festival, but a thunderstorm took all the attention away. On the left side, you can see the Zeebrugge harbor with its many wind turbines and in the background, you can see nature producing electricity. It's not about the emotion, but it's about a fact... Tiny human efforts to produce electricity with wind turbines and nature producing electricity out of the blue with no effort at all."

@oliviervandeginste (Belgium)

Location: Alpe di Siusi / Seiser Alm

"When we got there it was still really dark and the view was not what we were hoping for: there was no low fog on the meadows and the peaks were not in sight. Still, we waited for the sunrise, hope wasn’t lost yet. Our patience was rewarded at last: as the first sun rays appeared behind the peaks, a thick fog rolled in, and in just a few minutes this breathtaking scenery appeared in front of our eyes. It was one of the most magical moments I was lucky enough to experience so far. Moments like these taught me that photography is all about waiting for the right moment. I believe it is possible to contribute to the quality of your images simply by making use of your patience. I like to call this the process of waiting: it is important to me to get where I want to shoot early enough to be able to plan and anticipate, the potential photos I would like to take. After that, it is all about waiting: waiting for people to move away, for nightfall to shoot some stars, or like in this case, for the sun to show up and create some magic."

"Visiting the Dolomites last year was such a crazy experience. I loved every single view and moment of it, even though it was freezing and I’m not a fan of cold weather!"

@michelle.wandering (Netherlands)

Location: Whitsunday, Australia

"This place is so pure! It's only accessible by boat, so we slept on the boat in a neighboring bay in order to get here in the morning."

@johandroneadventures (Belgium)

Location: Tre Cime, Dolomites, Italy

"I was amazed by the location of that little church, just in front of the peaks of Tre Cime di Lavaredo. The mountains were covered by clouds most of the day and while we hiked, the peaks were hidden. We got lucky and the sky opened for a short period, revealing this view. I think this image conveys well how we feel small in front of nature."

@ghislainfave (France)

Location: Los Picachos de Ola, Panama

"This was definitely my favorite hike in Panama! Landscapes were out of this world... and we had an amazing sunrise that day as well! Panama has so much to offer, should definitely be on your bucket list."

@followmypath_ (France)

Location: Moskenesöya, Norway

"It was an 8-hour drive from Tromso to Lofoten. It was in the middle of the night and suddenly I discovered the Northern Lights. Since I had no tripod at hand, I used the car roof!"

@and1402 (Germany)

Location: Haifoss waterfall, Iceland

"It was my very first day in Iceland. At this moment I realized how incredible our earth is, and how many other beautiful places I was about to see during the trip. It was only the beginning."

@filippobellisola (Italy)

Location: Indonesia

"It feels to us like we can see even clearer now what matters the most to us. When almost everything is now not allowed, we can all realize what is most important for us in life, what we care the most about, and what we miss the hardest."

@makyandmatt (Czech Republic)

Location: Utah, USA

"These colorful mud mounds I came across while in Utah were like something from Mars. This location blew me away and I had never seen anything like this before."

@jamesxtheo (UK)

Location: Vatnajökull, Iceland

"The glaciers that these caves are in are always moving, shifting from snow, melts and floods - so nothing is permanent."

@jeffreyjkieffer (Australia)

Location: Utah, USA

"What a ridiculously beautiful landscape Utah has to offer! This is probably one of the most underrated viewpoints in the state. We hiked here early morning to find ourselves looking over this incredible canyon."

@tomdewaart (Netherlands)

@banudiker (Egypt)

Location: Iceland

"During our last stop on our Icelandic road trip, we were treated to these ruby red mountains smoking vents, this place felt like another planet!"

@joelfriend (UK)

Location: Central Oregon, USA

"We missed the turnoff for the trail and walked an extra 2 miles... After we backtracked and went down the correct trail we were greeted by this monster waterfall, one of the most spectacular places I’ve seen in Oregon."

@chadtorkelsen (USA)

Location: Manarola, Cinque Terre, Italy

"One of the most magical sunsets ever! I spent the whole evening there and waited for the most magical light."

@seplb (Austria)

"Maybe, after all, not all roads lead to Rome."
