The article announces winners of the 2007 Australia, New Zealand, Antarctica and New Guinea (ANZANG) Nature photography competition held in Australia. There were 1,250 photographic entries received for categories that included animals, plants, underwater subjects, wilderness landscapes, and, for the first time, a section titled "Our Impact", which includes some disturbing images of human impacts on the environment, such as a seal pup collared by a tight loop of rope. The overall winner of the 2007 ANZANG competition was a rare photograph of a black-shouldered kite caught in flight, a mouse clutched in its talons. The judges described it as "a remarkable action photograph of behaviour seldom seen."
