1st Prize
Grace Rexroth, Cairo, Egypt
While roaming through a market in Cairo I came upon this beautiful little girl. Her eyes were so big and I asked her mother if I could photograph her. Her mother ran into the house and I thought I'd lost the shot, but she emerged a few minutes later with a head scarf.

4th Place
Huanyu Qiao, Tibet, China
My parents had worked in Tibet for 8 years. They lost millions of personal development opportunities. However, they said they did not regret about it and were still missing their friends there and the time they spent there. Last year, Our family trip made me to understand the feeling of my parents. Yes, Tibet is still poor even today. But Tibetan people's spiritual life is rich.
5th Place
Jessica Barr, Mitre Peak, New Zealand
Mitre Peak, is special to me because of its resemblance of Switzerland's Matterhorn, an idyllic mountain if there ever was one. The ferocious wind was blowing the glaciated peak's snow off its sickle like summit and I got quite lucky with the picture to say the least.
