A Kolkata photographer, Debarshi Duttagupta was declared the Grand Prix winner among 60,000 entries in the 33 year old Nikon Photo Contest International.
Debarshi Duttagupta won the award for his picture titled Learning to Fly. The picture was shot at a ghat in Varanasi and captured a moment that conveys the story of a small fishing community. The success of the photograph lay in its capturing that magical moment of beauty as evening slips into the night.
The 33-year-old contest attracted 60000 entries this year, the highest in its history, from over 23000 applicants in 153 countries. The winning photograph will be showcased at exhibitions in Tokyo, Osaka and London in late 2011.
