Lonely Planet's co-founder, Tony Wheeler, on the winning photo:

• "Our winner combined two elements of India which many Lonely Planet travellers will have experienced - dramatic Rajasthan wall murals and colorfully dressed Rajasthani women. Sreesailam's photo brings the two together, one reflecting the other and with the leader in the group striding forcefully forward, like a match to the mirror."
