Rajan is one of the few elephants in Havelock  that can swim, so when he is not dragging timber in the forest he is  used as a tourist attraction. The relationship between the mahout and  his elephant usually lasts for their entire lives, creating an extremely  strong tie between the animal and the human being. <a href="http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/11/national_geographics_internati.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.noupe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/nationalgeographic_5.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> <a href="http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/photo-contest/2009-galleries" target="_blank">By Anke Seidlitz</a>Staying  in Asia since many years has given me the opportunity to get close to  wildlife on many occasions.

The judges liked that this image subverts the usual romanticized  approach to wildlife photography and more accurately reflects the fate  of many of the world’s animals. The sneaker at the top provides scale  and injects a human being into the scene; the anonymity of the wearer  suggests concealment and complicity. The structure of the cages, the  horror of the captivity, the crowded composition, and the claustrophobic  tension all add up to a sad and compelling photo.  <a href="http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/photo-contest/past-winners" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.noupe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/nationalgeographic_8.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> <a href="http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/photo-contest/past-winners" target="_blank">By Greg Davis</a>Huli wigman at the Mount Hagen Cultural Show, 2009. <a href="http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/photo-contest/past-winners" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.noupe.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/nationalgeographic_10.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> <a href="http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/photo-contest/past-winners?startgallery=2" target="_blank">By Robert Garrett, United States</a>Taken  at 1:22 a.m. on March 11, 2008.
