While working in the Paro Valley in the Kingdom of Bhutan, I was documenting a monastery that is also used as a school for young monks. Having always been fascinated by the history that one can see in old, worn Asian walls, I was admiring the age and wisdom of a particular wall when a young student passed by. Not realizing that he even saw me, he looked up right when I took this photograph. Not only did he look up at the perfect time allowing for me to capture this image between the white lines, but he also portrayed a confidence and young wisdom that is often rendered by the Bhutanese people.

This is one of my favorite images. It's a shot of the San Pedro Coast in Southern California -- with catalina island in the background. I like how the 4 sec. exposure turned the water into a mist. Photo taken by Thomas McConville (Vereinigte Staaten) - Artistic/Creative

This was taken one evening on Broad Street, in Red Bank, New Jersey. Red Bank is a cool place to go walking at night, there's always a lot going on.

After our first snowfall in Conneticut last winter, I set out in my 4X4 in search of a scene that would reflect the beauty and magic of the season.

A visit to a children's petting zoo offered many photo ops, the best of which was this adorable duo - photogenic matching goats! I decided this worm's-eye-view would give the image the near symmetrical composition I wanted. Photo taken by Mary-Ella Keith (Vereinigte Staaten) - Animals/Pets
