Corner Kick by Ruber Osoria

Picture
Our Honorable Mention Winner was also submitted by 
Ruber Osoria​​​​​ from  Concepción, Chile


Ruber Osoria is a Cuban photographer who now lives in southern Chile, far from his home country.  It was in the Cuban countryside that he first fell in love with photography, initially taking photos of everything around him with his mobile phone. It was not until he arrived in Chile that he had the opportunity to acquire a used camera.  He likes to show life on the streets, document conflicts and is not afraid to show misfortune in his photographs.
