A couple of great shots from the Sony World Photography contest

 

The Daily Mail covered the Sony World Photography 2023 contest:

From a forest lit up by fireflies to raccoons prowling a San Francisco park: The spectacular winners of the 2023 Sony World Photography Awards revealed

Here is the actual Web site for the contest:

There was a lot to choose from;  here are three I liked.

This one was featured in the Daily Mail article;  on one long trip, I was very close to these formations, but I didn't get to see them.  They are in the Italian Dolomites, photo by Robert Bilos.

This volcano-in-action shot was a Latin America regional winner by Kevin Moncayo. I don't recognize the volcano.

This picture of a floating island in Peru's Lake Titicaca (made of totora sedge) was from a series by Johanna Marecela Garavito Morales.  Interesting place to live if you don't need a basement.
