British Columbia–based amateur photographer Glen Chua is the winner of The Walrus Amateur Travel Photography Contest sponsored by Aeroplan®. In the words of one of our own judges, Walrus magazine art director Brian Morgan, “This photo is poetic, well-crafted, and packed with cinematic narrative details. Glen has brought back a grounded and honest image of India that makes you want to drop everything and travel there.” We received over 3,600 entries, and want to thank each and every photographer for submitting their photos.
Glen’s winning photo will be published in the January/February 2012 issue of The Walrus. He will receive 100,000 Aeroplan Miles courtesy of Aeroplan®, and two tickets to The Walrus Foundation Gala in Toronto on January 18, 2012.
Thank you for helping us pick the winner of The Walrus Amateur Travel Photography Contest sponsored by Aeroplan®.
