Winners Gallery July 2016

"Black and White" Theme Winners

Black and White is at the core of the art, being the original format of photography and it requires us to look at line, shadow and contrast in such a different way when shooting.

The Young Dreamers BY Sujan Sarkar

Picture
Our First Place Winner was submitted by 
Sujan Sarkar from Cooch Behar, India


Sujan is a school teacher by profession and lives in Cooch Behar, West Bengal, India. 
"Photography is my passion. I take photographs with love, I play on happily in the layers of humanity. I like to intimate with the subject matter and work  out of compassion, respect and understanding for the people and issues.
 For me Photography is a means of union among men, joining them together in the same feelings, it is a voiceless weapon which can demolish the barrier of Time and bring forward the identities of the unidentified."
