Vietnam “waterlily” ranked among list best shots from across the world
Take a look on the photo Vietnam waterlily – ranks on the list best shots from across the world.
The list was held by Dronestagram - a drone photography sharing website and community has collaborated with National Geographic to pick the best pictures out of thousands of entries.
The categories – which include people, nature and urban context – showcase a selection of impressive perspectives. From the windings roads of Transylvania to lily ponds in Vietnam, the shortlist presents the best seen footage from way up high.
At the category with themed “People”, 1st Place belong to “End of the line” by Martin Sanchez.
“I had the idea of shooting this particular performance a while back, but never found the time or place. This was perfect. After a few takes things got a little weird. Two people came by to play some tennis on the other court. As they got closer they had no idea what was happening on my end. They seemed very confused watching me just lying on the ground and making weird holding positions. They didn’t know whether to play or call for help. When I was all done, I showed them the somewhat final result and both of them said Ohhhh! I get it”, Martin Sanchez.
The 2nd Place of category “People” belong to “Waterlily” by Helios1412. “A woman harvests water lilies in a pond in the Mekong Delta in Vietnam”, Helios1412.
The 3rd Place belong to “La Vijanera” by Feelingmovie. “La Vijanera is a winter carnival that takes place in the town of Silió, in Cantabria (Spain), the first Sunday of each year. This party consists of a group of hunters who want to capture a bear. This photo is the end of the party in which the bear is captured”, Feelingmovie.
In addition, the category with themed “Nature”, 1st Place belong to “Provence, summer trim” by J Courtial. “I knew this was the beginning of the harvest season so I hunted down tractors and waited patiently until some started to harvest in a pattern that would create a pleasing composition from above”, J Courtial.
The 2nd Place belong to “Infinite road to Transylvania” by Calin Stan. “This is the image of Cheia dn1a Road that takes you to Transylvania, here in Romania. Yes, that Transylvania. Or, as the legend says, this is the view that Count Dracula himself saw on his nocturnal flight”, Calin Stan.
The 3rd Place belong to “Ice formation” by Florian. This photo was realized during winter in East Greenland, which is one of the most remote places on earth”, Florian.
At the category with themed “Urban”, 1st Place belong to “Concrete jungle” by Bachirm. “This picture was shot at sunset in Dubai at 6pm, trying to capture an area which was literally a desert 10 years back, and now became a concrete jungle with the highest buildings in Dubai”, Bachirm.
The 2nd Place belong to “Dawn on Mercury Tower” by Alexeygo. “I was sitting on a bench at the square near Moscow International Business Centre in search of a beautiful reflection in the mirror windows of Mercury Tower. While on the flight, I saw industrial climbers. I liked the way their work looked from that perspective: they seemed to wash the city itself, not just the building’s windows”, Alexeygo.
