John&#8217;s photo \u2014 a stunning shot of the Boulder River \u2014 <a href=\"http:\/\/yourshot.nationalgeographic.com\/stories\/after-midnight\/\">was rated the best of the lot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>What made the competition especially challenging was that this wasn&#8217;t a case of asking to see the photographers&#8217; favorite archival work. It was an assignment-based competition. The photographers\u00a0had three weeks to shoot the photo, between June 9 and June 30, and the photo had to be taken within four hours after midnight.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who&#8217;s familiar with John&#8217;s work will not be surprised by the honor, but we&#8217;re really glad to see this kind of recognition.
