There are moments hiking in the mountains that are difficult to capture because of the light and time of day. I was so pleased when everything worked in this photo. I took the picture September of 2007 in the mountains of Idaho. The lake is on the Norton Lakes trail in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. I think of this picture as a "thank you" to nature. What a gift! Photo taken by Jim Chupa (Estados Unidos) - Nature

I am a 17 year old kid and I got my start in photography when I was handed a 35mm camera and asked to document an event. I enjoy shooting from a photo journalism stand-point and I absolutly love to photograph things some might call trash. This picture is very special to me because it was taken in Rwanda, Africa. The people there hold a special place in my heart. We are in the process of adopting three Rwandan children. Photo taken by Nathan Styffe (Estados Unidos) - Artistic/Creative

Having been unwell, I bought a white Calla Lily plant to cheer up my room (and myself). I'm mesmerised by the beauty, solemnity, elegance, shape and form of these graceful flowers. They have inspired my photography to hone in on the detail of the natural world as well as the bigger picture. Photo taken by Christine Murray (Reino Unido) - Nature

This picture is special to me because I have always considered my foster Mom (from when I was 13 and still now at 31) to be my Angel. In this picture she is doing what she always does, and that is talking to the Heavens. I think it is very strong creativly especially with the simplicity of the antique look and the light on her face. I would be so very proud to show here that she is beautifull enough to me and the world for her picture to be picked. Photo taken by Debbie Polkinghorn (Estados Unidos) - Artistic/Creative
