Hard to believe... TPOTY again!


Last December I got a call from Chris Coe, who runs the Travel Photographer of the Year photo competition in the UK. When he called, I really couldn't believe that I had won the New Talent category. This year, I entered again submitting two stories and imagine my surprise when Karen Coe called me this December informing that I had won the Life category. Considering the fact that entries were received from photographers in 61 countries, I still can't believe the odds. The award includes some great prizes, but I have to admit that getting a funded trip to Cuba just has me thrilled. You can find the full gallery of winners here.

So I found your photography through the TPOTY winners galleries. I really admire your work. I've been shortlisted for the New Talent category in this years competition. Really happy to just have been shortlisted but I have no expectations of winning.
