Ok I'll post a comment : this is awesome, and seriously getting me back into taking pictures again. Wow, these photographers have produced incredible images, and I don't even mention the young ones (lord, from 15 to 18 - the world's so fresh). Thanks, thanks, thanks !

Great stuff in here. Although, Larry Louie's winning gallery feels severely over-processed.

These are gorgeous. I love to imagine the back stories that went into getting each of those photos. Thanks for sharing!

Pet Shark! - love that one.

The Yemen one is absolutely killer though. My parents did a short spell there for the State department (after the Cole Bombing), and the old school Yemeni architecture is just stunning, and very photogenic. Puts anything CGI'd into a Star Wars flick to shame.
