1st Place Winner: Whale Whisperers

Whale Whisperers Underwater Photograph | 10 Best Winners From The National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest 2015

Diving with a humpback whale and her newborn calf while they cruise around Roca Partida … in the Revillagigedo Islands, Mexico. This is an outstanding and unique place full of pelagic life, so we need to accelerate the incorporation of the islands into UNESCO as a natural heritage site in order to increase the protection of the islands against the prevailing illegal fishing corporations and big-game fishing.

3rd Place Winner: Camel Ardah

3rd Place Winner: Camel Ardah, Camel Racing | 10 Best Winners From The National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest 2015
Photo and caption by Ahmed Al Toqi

Camel Ardah, as it is called in Oman, is one of the traditional styles of camel racing … between two camels controlled by expert men. The faster camel is the loser … so they must be running at the same speed level in the same track. The main purpose of Ardah is to show the beauty and strength of the Arabian camels and the riders’ skills. Ardah is considered one of the most risky situations, since always the camel’s reactions are unpredictable and it may get wild and jump toward the audience.
