The heat of the Amboseli afternoon was a tangible weight, pressing down upon the tall, amber-tipped grasses that swayed in a lethargic breeze. It was the hour when the sun, having climbed to its zenith, began its slow, golden descent toward the horizon, painting the sky in a soft, ethereal palette of bruised periwinkle and hazy white clouds. In the middle of this vast, sun-baked basin, where the earth surrendered to the marshy embrace of shallow, silt-heavy pools, stood the Matriarch.

She hits the cool, glassy surface not with a crash, but with a graceful plunge, creating a soft, crystalline splash that breaks the silence. For a breathless second, she is submerged, allowing the crystal waters to soothe her feathered skin and wash away the heat of the day.

Diagonal lines from the intersecting escalators create strong geometry that guides the eye through layered movement.

Nizwa Market is a traditional market in Oman. On Friday morning there is the live stock auction where locals buy and sell goats, cows, and sheep. The auction is held in a circular enclosure. Auctioneers shout out prices, and herders display their animals, walking them around as buyers inspect their quality. It is extremely busy and noisy. The market starts buzzing just after sunrise and the light is beautiful. I was wandering the market and my attention was drawn by the lights and shadows.

– Рейтинг фотографов по странам и городам строится на основе 3-х лучших фотографий автора и их относительной позиции в каждой отдельной номинации. Рейтинг в номинации "Мобильная фотография" учитывается в меньшей степени для формирования рейтинга. В списке по странам и городам показывается одна фотография автора с лучшим рейтингом.
– В списке опубликованы только работы которые прошли 2-й этап голосования.
– В рейтинге лучших фотографий учитывается только одна — самая сильная — работа от каждого автора. Даже если у фотографа опубликовано несколько работ, в расчёте позиции используется только одна, с наивысшим рейтингом. Поэтому порядок фотографий в списке может не совпадать с итоговым положением автора в рейтинге.
– The rating of photographers by countries and cities is based on the three best photos of the author and their relative position in each separate nomination. Rating in the nomination "Mobile Photography" is taken into account to a lesser extent for rating formation. The list by country and city shows one photo of the author with the best rating.
– Only those photos have been published in the list that passed the second stage of voting.
– Only one strongest photo from each author is counted in the Best Photos ranking. Even if a photographer has several published works, only the highest-rated one is used to calculate their ranking position. As a result, the order of photos in the list may not match the author's final ranking position.
