Vivid and expressive, color has transformed photography, shaping how we perceive the world and how the world sees itself. In celebration of those who redefined its possibilities, we’ve curated a list of twenty photographers, past and present, whose masterful use of color has expanded photography’s boundaries and changed the way we experience images.

To celebrate our Travel Award (open for entries until the end of August), we've surveyed our stories archive and selected 10 inspiring photo series from across the globe. The stories section of our online magazine serves as a space for showcasing exciting projects from some of the most talented and creative practitioners of today, exemplified in these 10 fascinating projects.
