The winning photo in the Landscapes & Landscapes category, Low Tide at Miyajima Shrine [1], was submitted by Natasha Senn, a participant of the IES Abroad Nagoya Program [3]. Natasha attends John Hopkins University. She says: "The red gate at Miyajima Shrine is a world famous Japanese landmark. Seeing it both at high tide and low tide was quite a treat. The light shining through the clouds only added to the beauty of this landmark. The Japanese people searching for oysters at low tide also gave us a view of the true Japanese people and culture."
