Winner: "4th Dimension" By Abe Blair
"A large snowpack this year brought lots of spring runoff and many meadows had flooding," says Blair. "I noticed this driving to work and returned the following night with some LED lights and fishing waders. I lucked out with some low fog coming off the water and it added an amazing unplanned looked to this eerie alpine swamp." Nikon D850, Zeiss 18mm Milvus lens, Benro tripod. 15 sec., f2.8, ISO 12800.
