Lauded as one of the most important and revered exhibitions of its kind, the stunning images from the Natural History Museum - 100 in total - will dazzle and delight with its enthralling, once-in-a-lifetime moments captured by some of the most talented photographers in the world.
The theme of this year's photographic showcase couldn't be more apropos: a plea to protect our fragile planet. Explore, then, stunning vistas, frozen tundras, bizarre and intriguing species, incredible animal behaviour and tropical paradises. It is, in no uncertain terms, a fevered and heartfelt call to action in the form of sensational, jaw-dropping images.
A global showcase which presents the natural world's most challenging and thrilling sights, this years event - which runs until Sunday 8th April 2018 - is now in its 53rd year and garners nearly 50,000 entries from 92 countries. It also promises to be bigger, better and more beguilingly brilliant than its exhibitions of the past, and that's no mean feat.
Adult entry is £6 (£5 concessions), with a voluntary £1 donation to Bristol Museums development trust.

M Shed is located at Princes Wharf, Wapping Road, Bristol, BS1 4RN
