Me being congratulated for my shark photo, which won the "Oceans" division, by Steve Freligh, CEO and Publisher of Nature's Best Photography, in the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History Exhibition (Washington DC)
This is the "taller" (differently cropped) version of the Cheshire Cat Grin photo that won the award and is on display in the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington, DC (see the previous few photos on this page). While this gives a broader perspective to the shark, I decided that the added dark sky at the top detracts from the primary interest of the photo, which is the lower 2/3 of the shot.
