The captioned competition is conducted by Nature's Best Magazine, and
usually garners 20,000-25,000 entries every year. There are 15 categories,
and in addition to the Category Winners, a selection of entries are also
selected as "Highly Honored" entries. I am glad to say that one of my
submissions, linked below, has been chosen as one of the "Highly Honored"
entries in the "African Wildlife" category:

Winners. as well as a selection of the "Highly Honored" entries will be
exhibited in the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History  in Washington
D.C.from June 2013 onwards through 2014. I am also extremely glad to see
quite a few Indians in the list of winners!
