Not that we needed any convincing that our planet is absolutely beautiful, but DAAAANG, your #NATURE photo submissions were INCREDIBLE! Seems like everyday is earth day on semester (not that we’re complaining!).
The Carpe Diem Education photo contest, week 2 was a huge success. Whether the photos were (extreme) close-ups of animal noses, luscious greenery in various rainforests, or the gorgeous aqua blue waters of the sea, choosing a winner was no easy task.
Read on for our 10 favorite photo entries as well as the WINNER!
And the winner is…
“One of the most surreal places I’ve ever been.”
CONGRATS! And a huge “Thank you!” to everyone who submitted photos for week 2 of our contest.
Get ready for next week and another shot at a $50 gift card! Starting Monday, we want to see your Carpe Diem SPIRIT! If you and your friends are rockin’ your CDE T-shirt (or TATTOO, cough ::Justin Stamper:: cough), tag us at #CDEphotos2014.
This week’s photo contest entries reminded us that the most powerful travel moments aren’t always the loudest. Sometimes it’s the quiet, in-between spaces, a sunset, a shared meal, a breath of stillness, that leave the deepest impression. We loved seeing how this group captured that sense of calm amid the chaos of life on the road.
Written by the Carpe Diem team, this photo contest week 5 recap highlights students finding balance and reflection through their travels.
