This year’s winning photos show an extraordinary companionship between one of the world’s last two remaining Northern White rhinos and her keeper. And other than these moving portraits, TPOTY brings us many more stunning images, so let’s enjoy them together.

TPOTY had nearly 20,000 images submitted by photographers from 154 countries. The Overall Winner, or the Travel Photographer of the Year 2022, is the Slovenian photographer Matjaz Krivic. His images show 33-year-old Northern White rhino Najin and her keeper, Zachary Mutai, in Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Kenya.

The winning photos will be displayed in a free-to-view outdoor exhibition in Bristol, England in May 2023. In the meantime, you can see them below and in TPOTY’s online gallery. Matjaz Krivic commented:
