Favourite Images From
the Competition
I recently visited the Sony World Photography Awards at Somerset House in London. The standard of entries was very high. I have shown below some of my favourite images from the competition this year:
 |
| "Indifest" by SanKetk |
This photograph, submitted by an art student from Mumbai, India portrays very well the press of humanity in India. It gives the viewer a sense of the claustrophobic feeling of living among the billion plus population.
 |
| "In Between" by Ana Gregoric |
This image was submitted by a Slovenian freelance photographer. It portrays the generation gap between the older and younger generations. The old lady in the middle is regarded as irrelevant by the young girls and is ignored . The photograph highlights the loneliness of the older generation in modern society.
 |
| "San Francisco" by FilO |
This image although shot in colour is almost monochromatic. The pattern of garage doors raised one above the other on the steep street gives a sense of the adaptations man has had to make to live in this geologically unstable city.
 |
| "Confusion" by Ellie Victoria Gale |
This interesting photograph was submitted to the Action section of the competition and received a commendation.

| "Antonia + Simone, Barbershop, New York 1961 (Vogue)" by William Klein |
This photograph was part of the Outstanding Contribution to Photography Exhibition. William Kline is quoted as saying about the image: "This was an abandoned barber shop. I painted the background rose. The guy worked in a fast food joint next door. When it was published in Vogue, they cropped him out of the picture".
