Boy in the Water. Yamuna River, India 2004.

Overall Winner - Eyewitness Photography Competition 2011.

"David Gould has taken the overall prize with his evocative shot of a boy wading across the Yamuna River in India. "I was standing on a railway bridge and noticed below a boy in the water," said Gould of the shot. "He was standing, then started to move. I leant over the railings of the bridge, scrambling with the camera to get the shot, as the look of the rippling water was amazing, like the rings of a tree. Almost the circle of life, emitting out from this little boy and surreal."

Gould was picked out from 5560 images submitted online.
