Everybody seemed to love the chicken and the red purse picture, but I think that there were better photos that captured a sense of place, something exotic, as the michelin guide would say, "Worth a Journey." I thought the top photos that took us away from our own kitchens were the Uzbekistan and Turkey pictures, because they featured food and people in another place, in a well composed artistic photograph. Sorry, I can find that lobster in my own local fish market. I saw the contest as a National Geographic moment, and we clearly have different taste. Putting a cute kid in a photo with a burnt fish does not say travel; it says "bad photo." I liked any of the pictures that would have been likely to appear in the travel pages of a magazine; you had a nice selection of foreign locations that gave a the spirit of the place and something unusual to eat. For all we know, that chicken is the latest addition for the chicken coop instead of the soup pot.

Congratulations to both winners......and I thought I took creative travel photos. This contest has opened my eyes to the sheer beauty that surrounds us - home and away. Well done
