WINNERS GALLERY Oct 2018

"Minimalism ​​" 2018 Theme Winners

Minimalism or the absence of distractions from shadows, light and often a single subject, line or emotion is also the core of every photograph we take where instead of being subtle and undefined it becomes the dramatic force of the image.

Sarah has been interested in expressions of art, movement and the physical world around her since an early age.

Two ice cream By Yevhen Samuchenko

Picture
Our  Honorable Mention Winner was submitted by 
Yevhen Samuchenko​​ ​​​ from Odessa, Ukraine

​
AFIAP, UAPF. Travel photographer from Ukraine. Inspired by Mother Nature and our Universe. Shooting nature and street scenes, but most of all I was attracted to night shooting. At night shooting I like its slow pace — you can break away from the bustle of the day, and because of the long exposure shooting process does not interfere with the contemplation of the starry sky. Consciously watching the majestic night sky, I feel like a single particle of the Universe, merging into a single whole with it. I conduct group Night photography  master-classes in and individual Workshops for night shooting on location.
