I'd just given away all my shields and awards to this photo!
I'm from the land of Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world.
Should Mt. Everest picture be here in the list of competition, I'd still vote for the Peru's picture. It's not just about the image, but also about how beautifully it's captured.
To me, that picture wins.
Thanks a lot. Hopefully I will someday photograph in the Himalaya too. I guess there are few places more spectacular
