Last year we reported that Marko Korošec became the winner of the National Geographic Traveler magazine photography contest. Unfortunately, there are no Slovenians among this year's winners of the Traveler Photo Contest 2015, so there is no shortage of stunning photos. The stormy supercell ("Independence Day") of the Slovenian storm chaser was succeeded by the underwater photograph "Whale Whisperers" by Anuar Patjana Floriuk.
Magazine National Geographic Traveler or rather, their jury had competitions in the competition Traveler Photo Contest 2015 with his hands full of work, because with his photos on the theme of 'travel portraits', 'outdoor scenes', 'sense of space' and 'spontaneous moments', he was attended by 17 thousand amateur and professional photographers. But she had sweet worries. An ongoing competition for the 27th time, attracts the public's attention again and again, as it is truly exceptional photos worthy of our attention.
Author of the winning photo Yearbook of Patjana Floriuk says the "Whale Whisperers" photo was not planned. He says he wanted to humpback whale to take a close-up photo, but he decided to hang out a bit with a group of divers. And while the Korošec earned an eight-day expedition to Alaska as a prize, the Mexican got a 14-day trip to Costa Rica.
