This is the 11th year that the GDT Nature Photographers' Association holds a photography competition, to which photographers from around the world submit entries aiming to showcase the best image capturing nature in its full glory. Some of the photos submitted to this year's competition look like true artworks, to the point that it's hard to believe they are real photos, but we assure you that everything you see was simply captured by highly talented photographers. View the 15 most beautiful winning photos taken for the competition.
