Winner, young photographers 15 to 17 years: Coal tit – Patrick Moser (Switzerland). “The coal tit ( Periparus ater) is the smallest species of tit in Switzerland and quite common in our mountain forests. This photo was taken in the middle of winter in freezing cold conditions in the Val Roseg. Although they are almost always in the shadow at this time of year, the snow-covered and sun-lit mountains in the background allow for silhouette photographs. But it takes a lot of patience to wait for a bird to sit in the right spot, and most of the time it’s long gone before the focus is right”.
