Japan has announced the results of the annual Nikkor photo contest, held since 1953. The top prize went to Mayumi Takeuchi of Kanagawa Prefecture for an underwater shot taken from less than a meter away from a jellyfish. The jury described the frame as a “miracle.” The Gold award in the Nature category went to Koichi Ikeda of Fukuoka for a photo of two flying owls, taken with an 800 mm super-telephoto lens.
