Merit Prize: Charles Meacham, Taipei, Taiwan
Nikon Coolpix Digital Camera and a Bogen National Geographic Prize Package
Charles Meacham lives in Taiwan, where he teaches English. "I teach for a year, save everything, and travel for a year, then I then return home broke and start the process over again." Meacham captured this image during a Sikh festival called Hola Mohalla in Anandpur Sahib, India. "I was taking pictures of this young boy and his father when another man handed the boy this gun. It was really too heavy for him to hold, so I only had a second or two to capture the image." (Canon 5D digital camera, Canon 28-70 2.8L 28 mm lens, exposure at 1/100 second at f/2.8, ISO 250) Bogen prize package includes National Geographic Tundra Monopod; National Geographic Tundra Tripod with 3-way head; and an Earth Explorer Medium Shoulder Bag.
