First Place
"A Winning Battle" by Andy Heatwole
San Marcos, TX

"I drove up to Austin before sunrise to try and get a shot of the skyline in the "blue hour". Alas, I was too late and missed the light I was looking for. Determined not to let this happen again, I decided to head downtown to seek out the perfect vantage point for my next attempt. In the process I came across this structure fire and started snapping away. When the sun began to rise between the buildings, I found the shot I was looking for. It's amazing to find great beauty among such destruction and chaos. Fortunately, although a lot of property was destroyed, nobody was injured or killed." - Andy Heatwole

"This photo was taken of the last vacant strip of land in Irvine, California, being bulldozed for a new track of homes. It was taken in March of 2006. I took it to remember one of my favorite views, which now consists of a housing development." - Danielle Katz
Third Place
"A Child's Dream" by Eric Setiawan
Bandung, Indonesia

"At that time, I was just passing by a parking lot when I saw that kid squating next to the paybooth. He was watching motorcycles. I don't know what he was doing there and what he was thinking about, but his expression caught my eyes. Perhaps he was dreaming that someday he will ride a motorcycle like that."- Eric Setiawan
