$The Best in Show winner. Derek Doneen snapped this photo, 'The Youth,' while walking through Jerusalem's Old City. 'I can't pin down what exactly inspired the photo. To me, photography is an immediate reaction. I'm more interested in capturing real, human moments than I am in setting up posed pictures. Photographs are fractions of seconds. I was so humbled walking through the Old City and thinking about the history surrounding me -- how much this particular area means so much to so many people. It's been a place of tremendous loss and horrific conflict and yet, brought immense joy to so many others. Here are three kids playing in an ally -- oblivious to all of that. They could be Israeli or Palestinian, maybe both. It doesn't matter. There's innocence and purity that comes along with being a child that's captured in this picture.' (photo credit: Derek Doneen)$
