From over 50,000 entries the finalists selected were a total of 60 photos nominated for awards in six categories, including the natural world, travel, people, Americana, altered images, and a new category, mobile [phone]. What is interesting is the fact it is a photo contest where we the people, us plebeians get to vote the winner. As opposed to a "bunch of stuffy old farts out of touch with the world (just kidding) deciding a photographers fate. Kidding aside I was rather impressed with all the images in this contest sponsored by the Smithsonian Institute and I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I did.
Head on over to vote for the readers choice winner
