1st Place Michael McSweeney / Provision
Artisan Gold Mining in SW Burkina Faso. Over a 3 month period a camp of 50,000 has grown around this mine in a modern day version of the Klondyke with no running water or medical facilities
Judges' Citation: This photographer’s selection clearly demonstrates very good pacing which is so important to telling a story. And it was all captured while working in a difficult environment.
