Have you had a chance to check out the winning photographs from the third annual Remarkable Photo Contest yet? 

While the contest attracted over 300 entries from perceptive travelers around the world, it appears that the top photographic hotspot is Calcutta, with photographers from this location coming in first and second.

First prize went to Sudip Roychoudhury, a  34-year-old award winning freelancer who started shooting photos in high school.
