A few weeks ago, we challenged the GOOD community to send us a picture of someone they admire. I chose my younger brother, Reed. My twin brother (see above) was not pleased. So this time around, I'm making sure he knows I admire him, too.

We received hundreds of submissions from people declaring who they admire.
Unfortunately, we couldn't include every entry, but we want to share a few of our favorites. Have a look at the slideshow above. All the captions are by the photographers.

Now we need your help: Vote on your favorite submission by selecting the photographer's name below through June 3. The winning entry will be announced shortly after, featured on our homepage, and printed in the next issue of GOOD. We’ll also send a GOOD T-shirt and a free subscription (or gift subscription) to the winner.
