The Memorial Maria Luisa Photo Contest is an International Mountain, Nature, and Adventure Photo Contest. Winners in the 26 MML were selected from 16,000 entries by 1772 photographers from 79 countries. Just six Americans made the winners’ list and I am honored to be the only American with four Honorable Mentions. My entry Denali Dream received an honorable mention and is also the book cover of the newly released second edition of the Alaskan bestseller Alaska: A Photographic Excursion. The entry Glacier Calve OMG is the cover of my 2017 Alaska Calendar. Some beautiful winning images and all four Mark Kelley entries can be viewed in this twenty minute 26 MML-Photo Video (at 1:02, 3:18, 4:00, and 6:45) ,and during the 26 MML travelling exhibit in Spain.
