22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Canoeing the Anangu River, Ecuadorian Amazon

During a stay in Yasuni National Park, we awoke one morning before sunrise to canoe up the river. It was pitch dark except for the bright headlight worn by our guide in the front of the boat. As the jungle closed in around us, I shot this image.
