ERBIL — In Erbil, an exhibition highlighted the wildlife and birds of the Kurdistan Region’s mountains in observance of World Wildlife Day.
The event was a collaborative effort between the Kurdistan Photo Organization and local photographers.
A participant told 964media, “As a photographer specializing in mountain wildlife and birds, I took part in this exhibition to commemorate World Wildlife Day. I’m thankful to the organizers for offering such an essential platform for photographers like us to demonstrate our commitment, showcase our stunning images, and share the extensive efforts we’ve invested in capturing these moments for the audience.”
