2024 OnePlus Photography Awards Showcase

The woman stood behind a frosted bathroom door, holding a dried flower, immersed in melancholy. I positioned artificial light behind her, accentuating her shadows and leaving room for interpretation.

A natural everyday scene captured at Santa Monica Beach, California. A surfer makes his way to the water, surrounded by flying and perched seagulls, sand, the sea, and direct sunlight. The sunlight allowed for strong contrasts, casting shadows of the various objects around. I was relatively far away from him, but the zoom lens was my savior, and I'm grateful for this moment.

This scene unfolded in Vienna, where a man crossed a street just before disappearing into the shadows. I was fortunate to position his head between two signs. The reflection of the yellow buildings and the overall lighting created a cinematic ambiance.
