Какво очаквате от един разказ? Да ви развълнува дълбоко? Да ви отведе на необичайно, непознато място?

Всичко това постигат снимките снимките-победители в Siena International Photo Awards 2018. Макар и млади, с едва четири издания, годишните награди на Siena International Photo Awards (SIPA), са известни със силната си селекция, необичайни категории и удивителни, дълбоко вълнуващи кадри.

Конкурсът се провежда от Art Photo Travel, организация с нестопанска цел, чиято мисия включва „културни инициативи, насочени към разпространяване и популяризиране на

изкуството, културата, традициите, и природни красоти на света“.

Сред дълбоко емоционални портрети, кадри на редки обичаи, животински и растителни видове, сред впечатляващи архитектурни забележителности и постижения на човешкия дух, през 2018 г. за „Снимка на годината“ е отличена Battle Victim на K M Asad.

Поразителният портрет (горе) се фокусира върху сълзите на момиче от Рохингия, само ден след като е успяло да стигне в бежански лагер, бягайки, заедно със семейството си (и над 646 000 други бежанци в рамките на година) от насилието в Мианмар.

Congratulations @davidnllee for the first place in “Fascinating faces and characters” category! • “In Ethiopia, the kids of the Suri tribe are being over-protected by their families. Imagine these metal handcrafts as a jail with a Suri kid locked inside. Young kids are the hope and inheritors of the Suri culture, but the overprotection will marginalize the new generation from the world.” #sipacontest #sienaawards #sipa2018 #olympusitalia #fotoamatore
