But that\u2019s exactly why Ian\u2019s photograph stood out \u2013 because it\u2019s different from the average travel picture.<\/p>\n<p>The teeming rain makes the image seem almost like a pencil drawing, but there\u2019s enough detail in the skyline to give the viewer a sense of place. These elements alone wouldn\u2019t be enough, though, so the inclusion of the dock and ferry on the left helps anchor the scene. Great composition, hugely atmospheric, and a change from the norm.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ian.bramham\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@ian.bramham<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Fishermen at Ullahpara by Muhammad Hossain<\/h3>\n\t\t<div  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1044px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Young_APOY_Muhammad_Hossain.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"155697\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Young_APOY_Muhammad_Hossain.jpg\" alt=\"best travel photographs winner of young apoy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Muhammad Hossain<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p>Muhammad won the Travel round of our Young Amateur Photographer of the Year competition with this image, taken Ullahpara, Sirajganj District in Bangladesh. It would be easy to assume this was a drone shot, but in fact Muhammad was simply standing on a bridge and looking down at these fishermen when he shot it. His timing is excellent, having captured the net at its fullest as the fisherman casts it into the river.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s also managed to place it well, so it doesn\u2019t overlap any of the vegetation.

He said, &#8216;Zay Yar Lin is a ship\u2019s captain and took this looking down from the Bridge onto the deck below. On one half of the image is the red deck being swabbed down by one of the sailors, on the other is the sea below. The red of the deck is separated from the blue of the sea by a white line formed by the railing, while the soapy swirls of the detergent echo the white caps on the water.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an absolutely perfect image and one that made me slap my forehead the moment I saw it. I spent many years working on ships and could have taken something almost identical to that picture at almost any time but I never \u2018saw\u2019 the shot. Zay did, and the fact that he took it on his iPhone is neither here nor there. It was the seeing that counts.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/zayyarlin84\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@zayyarlin84<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/latest\/photo-news\/viewsonic-colorpro-awards-2021-top-10-photos-158450\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ViewSonic ColorPro Awards 2021 Top 10 Photos<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>The Alley Cat by Nayan Khanolkar<\/h3>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_96921&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1020px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/\u00a9-Nayan-Khanolkar_Wildlife-Photographer-of-the-Year_-Urban-winner-e1650636340809.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"96921\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/\u00a9-Nayan-Khanolkar_Wildlife-Photographer-of-the-Year_-Urban-winner-e1650636340809.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"663\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Nayan Khanolkar, Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2016 &#8211; Urban winner<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p>In the centre of Mumbai, humans spend their days alongside big cats.
