First Place: Ancestral ways of living, with touches of modernity
Photo and caption by Cedric Houin
This image was shot in the Kyrgyz lands of the Wakhan Corridor. The intimacy of this everyday life moment, shot inside of a family yurt, is in total contrast with the harsh environment these nomadic tribes live in. On the right we notice a television and a sound console. These tribes live weeks away from any village by foot. In spite of being located at an altitude of 4,300 meters in one of the most remote areas of Afghanistan they are equipped with solar panels, satellite dishes and cellphones.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

this looks like your kind of photo contest, vrglguaps, because you travel a lot.  go for it, boy!

even before digital cameras, i have learned that a bigger percentage of the merits of great photos is in the processing.  catching the moment of a scene or an event is the raw material.  so there.  you're in your winning form and i won't be surprised if one of the winning photos next year has your signature on it.
