See the winning images from our first Associate Travel Photo Contest
Sometimes a picture truly is worth a thousand words. Recently, Grand Circle associates were given the chance to share their images that tell the best stories of their travels around the world during our first-ever Associate Travel Photo Contest.
We asked our associates to submit photographs for five categories, including People, Nature & Wildlife, Landmarks, Artistic, and Company Culture. After a special photography gallery viewing, fellow Grand Circle associates voted for their favorites.
I was so impressed with the winning images that I simply had to share them with you. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did …
