Top 1000….
Wow..I thought my submission would never make it to the first round of Top 1000 of Garuda Indonesia World Photo Contest. The contest was followed by 15,478 participants from more than 100 countries with total submission of more than 74,000 photos! To make it to the Top 1000 in nature category is an honor!
The photo was taken in Bangka Island, North Sulawesi (Indonesia). Sincerely I am not expecting to win the photo contest at all as the rest of photos in Top 1000 were amazing. I submitted only two photos for nature category. I know my limit, so to see one of my photos managed to be in Top 1000 already make me feel super happy 🙂
indahs: dive, travel & photography 
Congratulation, btw, that’s really awesome photo.
Thank you! I am still surprised actually :))
Your welcome, I know feeling 🙂
Congratulations!
Thank you Jeff!
Congratulations, Indah! Both the clownfish and seahorse photos are beautiful (as is your profile photo there!). That’s quite an accomplishment!
Thank you Rob! I feel happy already to be considered by the juries as Top 1000 :)) – and noting how amazing the rest of nature photos that make it to the Top 1000 😉
I would feel happy too! It puts you up in a lofty territory. You’re work is fantastic and you deserve the recognition. 🙂
Indah, Selamet ya. Kusjes!
