Peter Lik’s Winning Images
Hollywood Nights — Silver Award
Los Angeles, California
After days of gray skies, twilight finally revealed Hollywood in all its glory. As city lights shimmered, I found the perfect angle where icons aligned — from Capitol Records to the Bronson Caves. In that fleeting moment, I felt the true heartbeat and history of Los Angeles unfold before me.
Scarlet Falls — Silver Award
Gifford Pinchot, Washington
Amid the quiet forest, fiery leaves framed a cascading waterfall — motion meeting stillness in perfect harmony. Using a long exposure, the rushing water softened into silk. Time slowed, colors deepened, and nature’s calm revealed its most painterly form — where strength and serenity coexist.
Gotham — Bronze Award
Manhattan, New York
After weeks of searching, the skyline finally opened from high above the city. Clouds broke just as light crowned the Empire State Building — the ultimate reward for patience and persistence. Through glass and rain, I captured the pulse of New York, alive in steel, storm, and ambition.
Island Bliss — Bronze Award
Oahu, Hawaii
At sunrise, the horizon glowed with molten light over the still Pacific. Every tone — gold, turquoise, coral — seemed to blend into peace. In that moment between night and day, the island exhaled. Paradise revealed itself not in grandeur, but in pure, gentle simplicity.
Midsummer Dream — Bronze Award
Florida Keys, Florida
Days of storms tested my patience until calm finally returned. The wind stilled, clouds parted, and a soft glow kissed the water. As the last light reflected across the sea, I pressed the shutter — capturing that rare, perfect silence when nature and the soul are completely in sync.
