Meet the Photograph in Puerto Rico comp winners

A couple of months ago we launched our Photograph for Nokia in Puerto Rico competition. Now, after being dazzled by masses of stunning shots, we’re happy to announce the five grand winners.

The challenge was simple: Show us your most breathtaking photos featuring landscapes, natural settings or wildlife taken using any type of camera. Hundreds of you entered.  Eventually, these were whittled down to forty talented finalists each of whom was sent a Nokia Lumia 1020 and tasked with creating a portfolio of shots on the world’s best camera smartphone.

So without further ado, please put your hands together for the five winners, who’ll now be jetting off on amazing trip to Puerto Rico with National Geographic photographer Stephen Alvarez. We’ll be showcasing more of their Nokia Lumia 1020 work later. In the meantime, here’s a tantalizing taster of what they’ve achieved so far.
