With barely weeks left to enter the 2016 Sony World Photography Awards, the world's biggest photography competition, photographers from around the world, including India, have been submitting some of the most stunning images -- many capturing breathtaking shots of mother nature at her finest.

Photographer's Note: In late summer the Euopean hamster gets ready for hibernation. He fills up his pouches with grains, roots, plants or insects and transports them into his food chamber (that's why he is running).

Photographer's Note: I wanted to capture this long exposure image right in the middle of a dark night with the Milky Way showing. The image shows a woman walking along a path, a path which seems to lead up to the Milky Way. She may be heading to her physical home for now, but eventually we all return to our stellar origins as starstuff. My goal was to capture a portrait that displays not just the physical aspects of a person, but a portrait of her whole being as a part of a larger universe.
