    there are some nice shots. Couple of real stinkers though, particularly that shot of the beggar, and the shot of the traffic cop is no great shakes either. Who did the judging ?

    -edit- ah. A couple of photographers and a bunch of CEOs, marketing people, and an MP.

    Meh. The tram one is a shot of a gimmick, nothing more. It's also been done to death. Someone did it a few years ago and it did the rounds on all the usual sites, google image search for "tram budapest lights" and you'll see countless variations.

    No excuse. Bad photography should be nipped in the bud at as early an age as possible. And that shot is Bad Photography on a whole pile of levels.

    Marius Vieth is a really good photographer, i've been following him on flickr and facebook for a while now and his work is fantastic. A deserved winner.
