Isle of Skye


Quiraing, Isle of Skye, April 06, 2013. The Quiraing is probably one of the most photographed locations in Scotland. I spent the whole previous day looking for a different point of view, since almost all pictures of this vista seem to have been taken from the same standpoint. Taken at 5.30 AM after many attempts. The lighted hill on the right is just what I was waiting for to get a much more interesting light. (Photo and caption by Guido Tramontano Guerritore/National Geographic Photo Contest) # (Places)

"Pagurus anachoretus" on a "Sabella spallanzani"


A "Pagurus anachoretus" on a calcareous tube of a "Sabella spallanzani," a marine worm. It is easier for the crab to collect its food here, which is transported by the current. It's very difficult to approach the worm without it closing quickly. (Photo by Lorenzo Terraneom/National Geographic Photo Contest) # (Nature)

Heater elements


I want to take photos of heater elements. When I entered the factory, I saw the metal sheets and I formed a picture of my photo. I wanted a lifting crane to take a the best photo. I directed the man who wear orange t-shirt and count the heater elements and I took the photo of his job. (Photo and caption by Melih Sular/National Geographic Photo Contest) # (Places)

In the waiting area


I was waiting for my flight to Seoul North Korea and then I saw these two women sleeping on the benches in the waiting area. Nobody near them seemed to be paying attention though! I can't see their face but I want to know if they are twins or not. They have identical dresses, body shapes, and even hair. Why are they holding hands? To make sure they do not get separated from each other? It is really interesting and entertaining to see this scene. (Photo and caption by Serious Pigeon/National Geographic Photo Contest) # (People)
