Vinod Liyanage is a multi award winning wildlife photographer whose work transforms moments in the wild into compelling visual stories.
A trained medical doctor, Vinod’s path into photography was shaped by a deep curiosity about the natural world and a disciplined eye developed through years of clinical practice. The patience, careful observation, and sensitivity to subtle detail that define his medical career now form the foundation of his approach behind the camera.
His work has been recognised on some of the world’s most respected platforms, including winning the Mammal Behaviour category at the 60th Natural History Museum Wildlife Photographer of the Year in London (2024), and earning 2nd Place in the Black & White Category at HIPA in Dubai (2024).
Today, alongside his medical profession, Vinod continues to explore the wild with a storyteller’s perspective, creating images that celebrate nature’s raw beauty while quietly revealing the emotion and drama within it.
