Congrats to 
Maung Maung Gyi for his work, “Cave of Hope,” a dramatic photo featuring a young monk in prayer, snagging the highly coveted grand prize for this year’s Nikon’s International Photo Contest. Results for this contest were announced last week. I stumbled upon this beautiful shot while doing some research for work on Nikon, the camera technology company founded in Japan.

In light of this week’s saddening verdict on Burmese pro-democracy heroine Aung San Suu Kyi, this picture, to me, served as a poignant reminder for us to maintain hope for Burma’s future despite the country’s ongoing political dissent.
