Check out great wildlife imagery at the Natural History Museum

5 star hotel

Event: Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2010 exhibition
Dates: October 22nd to March 11th
Location: Natural History Museum

Winning entries from the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2010 competition will be on display at the Natural History Museum beginning next month.

From October 22nd 2010 until March 11th 2011, a gallery of the most striking images submitted for consideration in the annual contest will be open to the public.

People staying in a 5 star hotel can check out the works, from some of the world's top professional and amateur photographers, before dining at the Landau, a top London restaurant.

Those in London for the exhibition's opening will also have the opportunity to visit a two-day accompanying symposium at the Royal Geographic Society, called Wildphotos.

Among the speakers at the event will be some of the winners from this year's competition, as well as acclaimed underwater photographer David Doubilet, plant photographer Sandra Bartocha and writer Mark Carwardine.

Anyone inspired by the pictures to get out their cameras and capture some animal magic of their own will be able to submit entries for the 2011 competition when it opens in January.
