Second Place

Woman-Bridget Leary

Location / Halong Bay, Vietnam
Description / While visiting Vietnam during my school break I went on a boating trip to Halong Bay. Here is a woman who rowed from boat to boat selling various goods and seafood. There are live crabs in the basket.

 

Third Place

Tide Coming In-Kathleen Quinlan

Location / Mont-Saint-Michel, France

Description / Mont-Saint-Michel is a medieval village and abbey in Normandy, France. The tide surrounding the village rises and falls throughout the day, making Mont-Saint-Michel at times an island, at times accessible by land. This picture was taken in October, as the tide was coming in around 6:00 pm. We had to hastily move our car!
