Объявлены победители ежегодного фотоконкурса iPhone Photography Awards 2020

Фотоконкурс iPhone Photography Awards (IPPAWARDS) был основан в далеком 2007 году. Уже на протяжении 13 лет IPPAWARDS освещает победителей конкурса — талантливых фотографов со всего света. Все участники конкурса создают свои работы непосредственно смартфоном iPhone. На фотоконкурс IPPAWARDS приходят тысячи заявок, судьи отбирают лишь лучшие фотографии.

фотограф: Dimpy Bhalotia

Сегодня в Нью-Йорке были объявлены победители этого международного конкурса. Гран-при конкурса 2020 достался британскому фотографу Dimpy Bhalotia за работу «Мальчишки в полёте». Почетные первое, второе и третье места присвоены Артёму Барышеву из России, Geli Zhao из Китая и Saif Hussain из Ирака. При этом, конкурс не связан напрямую с компанией Apple. Лауреаты премии этого года представляют более 20-ти стран.

Фотограф года (1 место) Артем Барышев из Санкт-Петербурга, Россия

фотограф: Artsiom Baryshau

Артем Барышев родился в Беларуси, г. Витебск, живет в Санкт-Петербурге. В 2014 году совершил кругосветное путешествие. По образованию он архитектор, создаёт дизайнерские вещи, элементы домашнего декора.

Про победивший снимок

– Я сделал этот снимок в январе 2020 года, когда путешествовал по Индии еще до закрытия границ. Мы ехали на поезде из Бангалора в Тируваннамалай, и это снимок я сделал прямо из окна поезда. Мне нравится снимать линии, получается очень графично. Я использую в iPhone серийную съемку, где в этом случае один из 20 кадров получился просто Wow, я сразу увидел, что он лучший и я хочу с ним участвовать в конкурсе. Цветокоррекция минимальная, добавил синего, чтобы стена сливалась с небом.

– Я снимаю на iPhone 6 – это моя любимая камера, которая всегда с собой. Ведь снимок – это случай, а камера – это инструмент, и не так важно, на зеркалку ты снимаешь или на смартфон. Этим мне хочется показать, что камера, которая всегда с собой, может дать тебе высокий уровень в фотографии.

– Два года назад я решил больше не публиковать снимки в Instagram, а начал их печатать и раздавать людям, которые со мной лично делились эмоциями. Я перестал выкладывать снимки за лайки. Мне кажется, что люди стали воспринимать свою жизнь через призму соцсетей – многие ценят лайк, а не то, что за снимком скрыто. Мне это не очень близко. Возможно, именно это сыграло ключевую роль в победе на iPhone Photography Awards 2020, поскольку одно из правил конкурса – номинированный снимок не должен быть опубликован в соцсетях.
