National Geographic recently announced the winners of its annual Pictures of The Year awards.
Karthik Subramaniam, a San Francisco-based software engineer of Indian origin has been named the grand prize winner for his photo titled "Dance of the Eagles.''
His photograph, titled "Dance of the Eagles", was taken at the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve in Alaska.
The photo was selected from nearly 5,000 entries across four categories: Nature, People, Places and Animals.
The title of the picture is being inspired by R.R.R Martin’s popular novel ‘A Dance with Dragons’.
His ‘Dance of the Eagles’ will be the cover-page of National Geographic’s May edition.
