16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Where Is Home?

The subject in the photograph is wearing a yellow burqa and wading into the water. The landscape depicts a dark body of water with an opening in the islands. As the body goes in further, looking for the familiar semblances of home, it also goes deeper into the water, inevitably trapped and sinking.
