National Geographic: Best Travel Photographer 2016

Big prize National Geographic for Best Travel Photographer has received Anthony Lau from Hong Kong for a photo a horseman from Mongolia. The other winners are Hiroki Inoue, who won an award for his beautiful photo of foxes in Hokkaido, Yasmin Mund for an aerial shot of people sleeping on the rooftops of Varanasi, India and Victor Lima for a photo of the Atacama Desert, located in the northern part of Chile.
It's a good thing that the photographers and photos were judged by someone else - in our editorial office, we would have easily awarded the first prize to all the participants.
