Judges Comments: 

The lines created by the gunwales of the boat focuses the eye on the heroic figure of the Arab boatman at its apex, steering through the marshes with his foot, concentrating on the destination. The wake and the shape of the background, a wide semicircular shape perfectly balances the foreground image. The narrow depth of field only emphasizes the feeling of the scene by accentuating the subject who is placed on a subtle dappled pink and steel blue sky.
