23 stunning images that will inspire your next holiday

With European countries reopening and Barbados inviting people to move there and work remotely for a year, travel is (tentatively) back on.

While we’re still embracing the new normal (most airlines now require you to wear face masks for the duration of the flight), it doesn’t mean we can’t daydream about our next holiday destination.

To help fuel our wanderlust, CEWE has released a new collection of images by photographers taken on their travels that were submitted to the 2019 edition of the world’s largest photo competition, the CEWE Photo Award.

The images have been released to encourage budding and professional photographers to submit their entries for the fourth edition of the awards, which will be open for entry until May 2021.

Clare Moreton, photo expert at CEWE UK, said: “Now more than ever before, photos are connecting people from around the globe, so it’s a great time to be launching the fourth edition of the CEWE Photo Award.

“With 448,152 photos submitted last year, the CEWE Photo Award is now the world’s largest photo competition and we are looking forward to sharing lots more beautiful images from photography enthusiasts from across the world this year.”
