Finalist Human Connection Award: People & Planet Ocean

An artisanal fisherman sets up and clears his boat of water in the morning mist. "On that morning, I took my camera out for a sunrise hike," says Evangelidis. "I had never visited that particular spot before but the scene and light were inviting. There were a couple of people fishing from the rock, a few women washing clothes, but the fisherman on the traditional canoe caught my eye. The morning mist brings out the mood nicely."
