Jury's Feedback
1ST PRIZE: Xavier Autrey Holschneider
“This image captivates with its golden light and rich tonal contrast, evoking a sense of warmth and quiet ritual. The interplay between silhouetted figures and vibrant fabrics creates a strong visual rhythm and layered composition. It’s a powerful, observational moment that feels resonant and pulls you into the moment. ” – Pia Riverola
2ND PRIZE: Victor Feillant
“This photo stands out for its strong emotional atmosphere and refined use of tone and color. Warm amber light glows from within, while blue accents and the motion of the rain create a striking contrast that evokes both comfort and solitude. The condensation on the glass adds softness and texture, lending the scene a cinematic sense of intimacy.” – Pia Riverola
3RD PRIZE:
“A triumph of texture and tone, the use of slow shutter speed transforms the woman and her flower-covered costume into a magical, brushstroke-esque blur, evoking a dreamlike quality that reflects the festival’s folkloric heritage. A wonderful, painting-like image that testifies to the photographer’s artistry and the profound power of color photography.” – The Independent Photographer Editors
