East photography competition #2: Best of Burma

Travel photography competition - Children jumping into lake in Burma

In issue #4 of our travel magazine East, we asked readers to dig out a snapshot of the action in their travel photos for our “movement” photography competition.

We were inundated with entries; a giant flame launching a hot air balloon into flight, a fisherman perched on one leg spying the next catch and a monk racing to morning prayers were just a few of the highlights. Have a look through some of our other favourites below.

The winner of the photography competition (and a luxury trip to Cambodia!) will be announced in issue #5. Sign up to our magazine for a free dose of travel inspiration and details of our next competition, delivered straight to your door.
