The winning photograph surprised us a bit (and probably some of the other photographers onboard as well). It was in the Landscape category and was the shot of the rainbow framed by the mist of Iguazu Falls. When interviewed (by Mary) about his success, the Photographer (Sam) offered this explanation (stow it away in case you ever want to try one of these):
I’ve come to the conclusion that cruisers, or at least the ones we have aboard, are quite predictable. The People shot that won was a close-up of small children in “local dress” – smiling. (Crying wouldn’t have cut it.) The Wildlife winner – a little baby animal – of indeterminate type, peering over what looked like a “sock” nest. In other words, cute. So there you have it, smiling kid, cute, cuddly animal, and landscape? Well, what could be rainbows? I had the only picture featuring one. Voila!
Smiling kids. Cute animals. Rainbows. Got it?
