From sea eagles fighting in Japan to wild horses thundering through the Camargue in France, these are just two of the stunning pictures set to go on show in a wildlife photo exhibition.
Other stunning shots due to be displayed by the British photographers include a cheetah with its six cubs and an elephant feeding, as well as a European Roller with its beak open after tossing up a grasshopper in Hungary.
Peter Jones, 74 from Nottinghamshire, came up with the idea of the exhibition to highlight wildlife in its natural habitat around the world and how precious our ecosystem is.
Patricia Kearton from Northallerton, Yorkshire, had to stand in the path of the charging wild horses in Camargue, a natural region in southern France, to get this shot. She said the galloping horses came straight towards her. She said: 'With a little bit of luck they will run round you, but they love to leave it till the very last minute just to keep you guessing'
Describing how he got his shot of the eagles fighting, he said: 'This was taken in the north of Japan in their winter when these white-tailed eagles, also known as sea eagles, gather on the sea ice.
'We were in an ice strengthened ship in temperatures of minus 10 for three hours, when I spotted the two birds in a flap over the fish.'
And Peter had to spend six hours in a hide 12 feet above the ground in Hungary to get his lovely shot of a European roller.
He said: ' We watched a pair of birds going backwards and forwards to a hole in a nearby tree to feed their chicks. I was very fortunate to catch this bird tossing the grasshopper around before feeding it to its young.'

This shot, taken by Susan Wilson, also from Nottinghamshire, captures an elephant reaching up to eat from an acacia tree. She captured the scene on a trip to the Masai Mara in Kenya on safari
Patricia Kearton from Northallerton in Yorkshire had to stand in the path of the charging wild horses to get her shot.
She said: 'I was a little apprehensive as to stand there and stay in position as these galloping horses come straight towards me.
'With a little bit of luck they will run round you, but they love to leave it till the very last minute just to keep you guessing.
'I selected these three horses in a group as it's best to pick one horse out and stay focused with that one while they gallop towards you.'
In the Masai Mara in Kenya she saw a female cheetah with her six cubs whilst they drove round looking for big game.
She said: ' We were very fortunate to be there at the right time as it is rare for a cheetah to have six cubs. We were around 30 metres away from this family when I took the photo.
'I heard that four survived and are still alive today.'
Patricia Kearton spent five hours in a hide in Hungary to capture this shot of a pair of European bee-eaters where the male is giving a gift to his female before mating
Susan Wilson had to wait an hour in minus eight conditions in Finland to get this picture of an arctic fox, left, poking its tongue out. Another photographer, Patricia Kearton, captured a red fox, right, hunting in the snow in Yellowstone National Park in the US state of Wyoming
A different shot from the Masai Mara was taken by Susan Wilson, also from Nottinghamshire, as an elephant reached up to eat from an acacia tree whilst she was on safari.
On another occasion she spent all night in a hide in Finland near the Russian border to get a dawn shot of a burly brown bear.
Susan said: ' We spent the whole night waiting for bears to come by at the side of a small lake. This large male came by in the early hours of the morning so we were waiting some 11 hours to capture this picture.'
They often braved subzero temperatures for hours to get some of their shots.
Susan had to wait an hour in minus eight conditions in Finland to get this picture of an arctic fox poking its tongue out, whilst even a red fox captured in Yellowstone National Park by Patricia was hunting in the snow in minus five.
Peter got the shot of a polar bear and its cub in Spitsbergen in the summer whilst they went around pack ice in a small zodiac, but it was still minus five.
He said: 'This picture was taken from a zodiac as we searched amongst the icebergs looking for Polar bears. We were around some thirty feet away from this mother and cub when I took the picture.'
And although it doesn't look like it, when he got this shot of a pintail duck in flight he had been waiting for an hour in minus ten conditions in northern Japan.

In warmer climes, Susan got this shot of a rare Hunting Dog in Botswana, an endangered species that only has about 4,000 left in the wild.
And whilst looking for tigers in Kana National Park in India she noticed something else on the lookout.
She said: 'This family of Langur Monkeys had the male high up to spot any danger, probably tigers. We were just driving around also looking for tigers and we came upon these monkeys at the side of the road on a hot day.'
The exhibition, Wildlife From Around the World, will include 72 pictures and runs for a month later this year at Patching Art Centre at Calverton, Nottingham.
Peter, who runs photography holidays with Wildwatch Tours said: 'This is the first big exhibition we have ever done. We would to think that it would might make people think more about conservation and help to protect our wildlife.
'We hope we can bring to their attention about the world's wildlife and how much it is in danger, every trip we do is helping to protect it and makes people more aware of what's happening to some of our endangered wildlife.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
