AAP Magazine#57 &quot;Portrait&quot; invites photographers to explore humanity in each of us. From the classic studio portraits to the rise of the selfie, the best portraits give a glimpse into somebody&#39;s soul, a connection formed across countries, cultures and ages.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

We seek the submission of photographs that celebrate the aesthetic and conceptual considerations involved in the creation of the portrait: celebrate diversity, creativity, honesty and self-expression. Studio portraits, candid street shots, self-portraits, conceptual and fine art all welcome. With 7.57 billion people to choose from around the world, show us the ones that matter to you.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

All genres, capture types, color and B&amp;W, traditional and non-traditional photographic and digital post-production processes are welcome for submission.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Applications will be assessed on three criteria: creativity, originality and the visual / emotional impact of the image. The winners will be announced on All About Photo and social media.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Please send us a cohesive body of work or portfolio. Only a unified group of photos will be published in AAP Magazine.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Winners will receive $1,000 in cash awards, their winning image(s) or full portfolio published in AAP Magazine #57, extensive press coverage and global recognition.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

All winners will have their work published in the 57th printed issue of AAP Magazine, a free copy of the magazine and their portfolio showcased in the Winners Gallery of www.all-about-photo.com.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

All About Photo is proud to present Filippo Poli as the winner of the April 2026 Solo Exhibition with his project Alpine Hiatus: The Snow No Longer Tastes Like Snow. The series will be featured exclusively on All About Photo throughout April 2026.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

In Alpine Hiatus, Italian photographer and architect Poli captures the Alps caught between memory and transformation. Returning decades after childhood winters in the Aosta Valley, he finds snowfields replaced by reservoirs, snow cannons, and infrastructure. By juxtaposing his family’s archival black-and-white photographs with contemporary color images, Poli explores the emotional and environmental erosion of a once-familiar landscape.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The project blends architectural precision with poetic restraint, documenting both loss and resilience. Alpine Hiatus is a meditation on climate change, memory, and the shifting bond between humans and landscape. Through this exhibition, All About Photo continues to highlight photographers whose work addresses urgent global themes through a personal lens, offering viewers a quiet yet powerful act of witness.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The marginalization of women in the history of photography is rooted in a long-standing tendency to undervalue their creative voice. For decades, women were more often seen as muses or assistants, rather than as artists shaping their own vision. Early visual culture reinforced this imbalance, portraying women as passive figures, while limiting both their representation and their role behind the camera.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Yet throughout history, women have continuously challenged these boundaries—using photography to document, question, and redefine how the world is seen.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

With its 55th edition, AAP Magazine celebrates the strength, resilience, and creative power of women through the work of 25 selected photographers. Among them, 17 women are joined by 8 men, representing 12 countries across 3 continents, whose diverse approaches form a compelling tribute to the theme.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

From fine art to street photography, documentary to portraiture, the selected works offer a wide range of perspectives—some intimate and introspective, others outward-looking and socially engaged. Together, they create a rich and nuanced dialogue on how women are represented and empowered through photography today.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;



The Winner is Silvia Alesssi (Italy) with the series &#39;The Cut&#39;&lt;br&gt;

Photography has always existed at the intersection of light and darkness. When light fades, shadows appear—stretching across surfaces, shaping forms, and revealing stories that might otherwise remain unseen. In photography, shadows are not merely the absence of light; they are a creative force capable of transforming the ordinary into something deeply evocative.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

With its newest international call for entries, &lt;strong&gt;All About Photo&lt;/strong&gt; invites photographers from around the world to explore this powerful visual language in &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.all-about-photo.com/all-about-photo-contest.php?cid=209&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;AAP Magazine #56: SHADOWS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. This upcoming edition will present a curated selection of compelling photographic projects dedicated to the artistic possibilities of shadow.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Expressive Power of Shadows&lt;/h2&gt;

Shadows are among the most poetic elements in photography. They shape composition, create atmosphere, and introduce a sense of mystery that encourages viewers to look deeper. A shadow may conceal as much as it reveals, leaving space for imagination and interpretation.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Throughout the history of photography, artists have used shadows to evoke emotion and mood—nostalgia, solitude, tension, or quiet serenity. A long shadow cast across a street can suggest the passage of time; a dark silhouette can transform a familiar subject into something symbolic and universal. For photographers, learning to see and use shadows creatively is often what elevates an image from simple documentation to visual storytelling.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Beauty of Silhouettes&lt;/h2&gt;

Silhouettes are an essential part of the language of shadows. By reducing a subject to its outline against a luminous background, photographers create striking graphic compositions that emphasize shape, gesture, and movement.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This technique removes unnecessary details and allows emotion to emerge through form alone. A solitary figure at sunset, a tree against a glowing sky, or a couple walking through a backlit street can instantly become timeless visual metaphors. Whether subtle or dramatic, silhouettes demonstrate how the balance between light and darkness can shape narrative and atmosphere.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOllWQwwXrT_5_ulKauiZlBz5y1gVsW5of-7OvDUSAP5ehuh6NX_HtS4kNJb-AZ36YfZg5dxpA3stjBYg-OF30XpaUnCw3CfLSP5OZ_YSetsR3ai4y9WLbfCSvcsnq4Rg2pd1D5DjVhKbaUYBSKNhvJCHrBf-YZa79PM0oT3yESeZy0HU6S6cDPWLwTgE/s2000/ad-mail-2000x2000-209-AAPM56-Shadows-2026-3.jpg&quot; style=&quot;display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; &quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; data-original-height=&quot;2000&quot; data-original-width=&quot;2000&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOllWQwwXrT_5_ulKauiZlBz5y1gVsW5of-7OvDUSAP5ehuh6NX_HtS4kNJb-AZ36YfZg5dxpA3stjBYg-OF30XpaUnCw3CfLSP5OZ_YSetsR3ai4y9WLbfCSvcsnq4Rg2pd1D5DjVhKbaUYBSKNhvJCHrBf-YZa79PM0oT3yESeZy0HU6S6cDPWLwTgE/s600/ad-mail-2000x2000-209-AAPM56-Shadows-2026-3.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;What the Jury Is Looking For&lt;/h2&gt;

For &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.all-about-photo.com/all-about-photo-contest.php?cid=209&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;AAP Magazine #56: SHADOWS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, submissions will be evaluated according to three key criteria: &lt;strong&gt;creativity, originality, and visual or emotional impact&lt;/strong&gt;. The goal is to identify photographers who bring a distinctive voice to the theme and whose work resonates with viewers beyond aesthetics alone.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Rather than promoting a single interpretation of shadows, the call welcomes diverse perspectives—from minimalist compositions and abstract explorations to documentary and conceptual approaches.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;A Platform for International Exposure&lt;/h2&gt;

Participating in an &lt;strong&gt;All About Photo&lt;/strong&gt; competition can be an important step in a photographer’s career. The platform is widely recognized in the international photography scene and regularly attracts the attention of editors, book publishers, gallery owners, festival directors, curators, and creative directors.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

For emerging photographers, visibility can open doors to exhibitions, publications, and new collaborations. For established artists, it offers an opportunity to connect with new audiences and share their work within a global photography community.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_3iQ0QWoMKT-EoWwIt7W9RVp8Hrd9u0Nt8SeQzLyT0VbvzphkraQYaFP0_0ok3d0DcKy7uWy-HklFeOrQQXpbsg25zF_Hk3OvbPmEYUJXc2t3JZgMzyXVoryQ5fMOC_WmicPKMlrUo_5xIIaVhLELMuoIghq1yNXkhMLiM5MWj9-b0qe6BGDq9Qe9YpY/s1600/ad-mail-1600x1100-136-AAPM47-Shadows-2025-14.jpg&quot; style=&quot;display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; &quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; data-original-height=&quot;1100&quot; data-original-width=&quot;1600&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_3iQ0QWoMKT-EoWwIt7W9RVp8Hrd9u0Nt8SeQzLyT0VbvzphkraQYaFP0_0ok3d0DcKy7uWy-HklFeOrQQXpbsg25zF_Hk3OvbPmEYUJXc2t3JZgMzyXVoryQ5fMOC_WmicPKMlrUo_5xIIaVhLELMuoIghq1yNXkhMLiM5MWj9-b0qe6BGDq9Qe9YpY/s600/ad-mail-1600x1100-136-AAPM47-Shadows-2025-14.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;A Lasting Online Exhibition&lt;/h2&gt;

Selected photographers will benefit from international exposure through the &lt;strong&gt;All About Photo&lt;/strong&gt; website, newsletter, and social media channels. The winning portfolios will also be featured in a &lt;strong&gt;permanent online exhibition&lt;/strong&gt;, allowing the work to remain accessible to collectors, editors, and photography enthusiasts long after the competition results are announced.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This digital gallery becomes a lasting showcase of contemporary photography, highlighting how artists around the world interpret the same theme through different creative perspectives.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;An Invitation to Explore the Darkness&lt;/h2&gt;

Photographers interested in submitting their work should ensure that their images have not previously been published in &lt;strong&gt;AAP Magazine&lt;/strong&gt;, as previously featured work is not eligible for resubmission. Beyond this requirement, the competition encourages artistic freedom and welcomes diverse interpretations of the theme.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The winners will be announced on the &lt;strong&gt;All About Photo&lt;/strong&gt; website and across its social media channels, where a vibrant international audience of photography enthusiasts actively discovers new talent and contemporary photographic projects.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

In a world saturated with images, the power of shadows remains uniquely captivating. They guide the viewer’s eye, create drama, and evoke atmosphere in ways few other visual elements can. Through &lt;strong&gt;AAP Magazine #56: SHADOWS&lt;/strong&gt;, photographers have the opportunity to explore this timeless visual language and share their vision with a global audience.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

For those who believe that light is only half the story, this call for entries is an invitation to reveal what lies within the darkness.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.all-about-photo.com/all-about-photo-contest.php?cid=209&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Submit your work, share your vision, and let your shadows speak.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;

This series explores environments shaped by human ambition, where structures operate at a scale that exceeds individual presence.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Whether meticulously maintained, fully operational, or marked by abandonment, these spaces persist. I do not seek to document decay, but rather to observe how these architectural forms continue to impose their systemic logic, even when human activity has withdrawn. In these images, human presence recedes in favor of massive, organized structures. Within this apparent coherence, a subtle form of decoherence emerges — a misalignment between monumental scale and lived experience, between operational systems and the tangible reality of the body. I approach these environments from a distance, observing how structure prevails over function. The act of photographing becomes a way of remaining within this tension — of confronting what both attracts and unsettles me. What remains is not decay as an end, but inertia — a quiet persistence of civilization beyond its visible utility.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Civilization is an ongoing body of work, conceived as an open and evolving series. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Since the earliest days of photography, women have played a vital role in shaping visual culture—not only as subjects, but as creators of powerful narratives that define eras, challenge norms, and expand artistic boundaries.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Across documentary, fine art, fashion, portraiture, and experimental practices, women photographers have continuously redefined how stories are told through the lens. Today, photography remains one of the most influential tools for exploring identity, strength, resilience, and beauty, and women remain at the heart of that evolution.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.all-about-photo.com/all-about-photo-contest.php?cid=201&quot;&gt;AAP Magazine 55&lt;/a&gt; proudly invites photographers from around the world to submit their work for a special edition dedicated entirely to women. This international photography competition is open to all artists, whether emerging or professional, who wish to present compelling visual interpretations centered on women.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The theme is intentionally open, offering complete creative freedom. Submissions may explore personal narratives, social issues, cultural perspectives, conceptual ideas, or purely aesthetic visions. All photographic genres and techniques are welcome, including digital, film, color, and black-and-white photography.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
AAP Magazine 55 provides far more than a competition—it is a global platform for meaningful exposure. Selected photographers will have their work published in a prestigious international photography magazine recognized by collectors, curators, editors, and industry professionals worldwide.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
In addition to publication, the competition awards a total of $1,000 in cash prizes and extensive visibility through editorial features and online promotion.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The first-place winner will receive a $500 cash prize, an exclusive interview, and prominent publication in AAP Magazine 55. Their work will also be showcased in the Winners Gallery on All About Photo and included in the printed edition distributed internationally.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The second-place winner will receive $300, and the third-place winner will receive $200, both benefiting from the same high-level exposure and publication opportunities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Numerous honorable mentions will also be selected, with their photographs featured alongside the winners in this special edition.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Submitting to AAP Magazine 55 is an opportunity to elevate your photography career while becoming part of a curated collection celebrating women through diverse visual voices.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Publication in AAP Magazine places your work in front of a global audience actively engaged with contemporary photography. Beyond the printed magazine, selected images continue to gain online visibility, ensuring long-term exposure on one of the world’s most respected photography platforms.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The submission process is simple and open to both single images and cohesive portfolios. Whether your work is intimate or bold, documentary or conceptual, this edition of AAP Magazine is an invitation to share your vision and join an international conversation about women and photography.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
AAP Magazine 55 is now accepting submissions. Photographers are encouraged to enter and take part in an edition that honors creativity, diversity, and the enduring power of visual storytelling.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCjQo5L8zS7aOcaJfn4qCxpAAszThM1FNzz6BVdLgWSoQh-q-v6j7kTUuCGEgytS6yxiAKw79A03E3-ZEjXOXmkFN7TcTxOwgoZ8Xr-qnkHDDGVFFwR6JTMkyYW4gaFvaYfTMrj1MKCuGLOcC1vDdgngK5s85pUGVQ5Z0CR7pq8fWY2c4Ceswe6aBB_Ts/s3000/20131101_DSC9826.jpg&quot; style=&quot;display: block; padding: 1em 0; text-align: center; &quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; data-original-height=&quot;1999&quot; data-original-width=&quot;3000&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCjQo5L8zS7aOcaJfn4qCxpAAszThM1FNzz6BVdLgWSoQh-q-v6j7kTUuCGEgytS6yxiAKw79A03E3-ZEjXOXmkFN7TcTxOwgoZ8Xr-qnkHDDGVFFwR6JTMkyYW4gaFvaYfTMrj1MKCuGLOcC1vDdgngK5s85pUGVQ5Z0CR7pq8fWY2c4Ceswe6aBB_Ts/s600/20131101_DSC9826.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

When The Pavement Breathes is a vivid exploration of the unnoticed moments that quietly transform the mundane into the extraordinary. Rooted in spontaneous, candid observation, this body of work traces the pulse of the street, where chance encounters fleeting gestures, and unguarded expressions briefly surface before dissolving back into routine. The photographs, made across cities and streets in different parts of the world, reveal unexpected juxtapositions and subtle details that disrupt habitual ways of seeing.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Despite their varied geographic origins, the images speak a shared visual language. Humor, irony, beauty, and oddity emerge not as cultural exceptions, but as universal human experiences. Familiar gestures repeat across borders; emotions echo from place to place. In this way, the work emphasizes how daily life, wherever it unfolds, carries more in common than we often assume.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Moving through these global yet intimate moments, the series invites viewers to slow down and rediscover wonder within the everyday. Shadows converse with architecture, bodies mirror their surroundings, and the ordinary becomes momentarily strange or luminous. When The Pavement Breathes suggests that the street itself is alive, responsive, expressive, and filled with quiet surprises just beneath the surface. By paying attention to what is often overlooked, the work reframes the urban landscape as a living gallery, where the most compelling moments are unscripted and universally human.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

AAP Magazine is pleased to announce the 25 winners of AAP Magazine #54: Nature, an international photography competition celebrating the natural world as a powerful subject of visual storytelling. This edition brings together outstanding photographic projects that explore nature in its many forms, from untouched landscapes and wildlife to fragile ecosystems and the evolving relationship between humans and their environment.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The competition attracted thousands of submissions from photographers worldwide, revealing a wide range of approaches and perspectives—from grand natural vistas and remote territories to intimate studies of flora, fauna, and natural textures. The selected winners represent multiple countries across several continents, highlighting the truly global scope of contemporary nature photography.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Individually distinct yet collectively resonant, these projects form a layered portrait of nature shaped by time, climate, and human presence.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

AAP Magazine is pleased to announce the 25 winners of &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.all-about-photo.com/photo-articles/photo-article/2036/top-award-winning-travel-photography-featured-in-aap-magazine-53&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;AAP Magazine #53: Travels&lt;/a&gt;, an international photography competition celebrating travel as a powerful form of visual storytelling. This edition brings together outstanding photographic projects that reflect the spirit of discovery, cultural encounter, and human connection across the globe.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The competition attracted thousands of submissions from photographers worldwide, revealing a remarkable range of perspectives—from expansive landscapes and intimate cultural moments to striking wildlife encounters and portraits of everyday life. The selected winners represent 13 countries across four continents, underscoring the truly global reach of contemporary travel photography. Notably, 12 of the 25 winning photographers are women, highlighting the diversity of voices shaping today’s photographic landscape.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

For this issue, AAP Magazine sought cohesive bodies of work capable of transporting viewers into lived experiences—projects that speak to devotion, labor, identity, and belonging. The winning series explore sacred spaces in Afghanistan, ancestral rituals in Ethiopia and Borneo, and disappearing ways of life in Papua New Guinea and the Amazon, alongside intimate narratives of childhood, migration, and work across different cultures. Individually distinct yet collectively resonant, these projects form a layered portrait of a world shaped by history, belief, environment, and human connection.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Published monthly, AAP Magazine showcases both emerging and established photographers whose work pushes the boundaries of visual storytelling. Issue #53: Travels honors the creativity, vision, and technical excellence of these artists, offering audiences new ways to engage with the world through photography.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Solo Exhibition January 1 - 31, 2026&lt;br&gt;
A Portrait of Lifelong Togetherness&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;


All About Photo is pleased to unveil its first Solo Exhibition of 2026, Fay and Gay by Samantha Yancey.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;


This intimate photographic project explores lifelong companionship through the story of twin sisters Fay and Gay, born in 1936 near Pelahatchie, Mississippi. Never having spent a day apart, they have shared a home, careers, routines, and passions for more than eight decades. From building their home together in 1969 to dressing alike by choice, their lives unfold in a quiet, enduring synchronicity.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;


With sensitivity and restraint, Samantha Yancey captures this rare bond, offering a subtle and deeply human reflection on time, devotion, and the beauty of an ordinary life lived side by side. The project resonates through its emotional clarity and gentle strength, inviting viewers into a world shaped by constancy and mutual presence.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

“To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one&#39;s head, one&#39;s eye and one&#39;s heart on the same axis.”  Henri Cartier-Bresson&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Step into a world of creativity and recognition with the 11th edition of the All About Photo Awards – The Mind’s Eye. For over a decade, we have provided photographers from around the world with a global platform to showcase their work, gain international exposure, and compete for over $100,000 in prizes awarded to date.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Solo Exhibition December 1 - 31, 2025&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
A Profound Look at a World in Transition: Curated by Ed Kashi&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

All About Photo is proud to announce Antonio Denti as the winner of the December Solo Exhibition Contest, selected by internationally acclaimed photographer Ed Kashi. His long-term project, “Notes from the Edge,” offers a striking and poetic exploration of what it means to live in a world caught between collapse and rebirth.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
A Profound Look at a World in Transition&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;




In “Notes from the Edge,” Denti turns his camera toward the uncertain times we are all experiencing. His photographs describe a world where the old has already faded but the new has yet to fully emerge — a suspended, fragile moment in history defined by transition, turmoil, hope, and fear.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The project examines multiple layers of contemporary life: global events, climate concerns, economic tensions, emotional states, and the fragile web of human relationships. Across borders and contexts, Denti notices the same underlying sensation: people being pushed to the limits of what they once knew.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

His subjects — migrants, priests, soldiers, children, ordinary families — appear united by a common struggle: the search for meaning in a world whose foundations are constantly shifting.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Selected from an international call for entries, these talented street photographers capture everyday life, urban moments, and human interactions with authenticity, precision, and artistic insight. Discover the compelling work of this year’s award-winning street photography winners from around the globe.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This year’s winners showcase a remarkable diversity of approaches. Some photographers embrace classic documentary traditions, capturing spontaneous interactions and unguarded human moments. Others explore the street through bold color, shadow, graphic compositions, or conceptual approaches that highlight fleeting gestures, urban geometry, and the quiet rhythms of city life. Their photographs reveal humor, poetry, tension, and beauty — the very heart of street photography.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Across the series, we see human presence in all its forms: from monumental gatherings and sacred rituals to intimate, suspended moments of reflection. Whether capturing the anonymity of urban streets, the choreography of daily life, or the unexpected poetry in a single gesture, each photograph transforms the ordinary into something extraordinary.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Together, these 25 photographers remind us why street photography remains one of the most dynamic and accessible forms of contemporary photography. Every street corner holds a story — and these powerful images reveal just how many are waiting to be discovered.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The Winner is Savadmon Avalachamveettil (Ireland) with the series &#39;MahaKumbh - World&#39;s Largest Gathering&#39;&lt;br&gt;
The Second Place Winner is Jozef Macak (Slovakia) with the series &#39;Tides of life&#39;&lt;br&gt;
The Third Place Winner is David Masoko (Netherlands) with the series &#39;Dislocated Presences&#39;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The other winners featured in the Merit Award’s Gallery are: Francesco Fantini (Italy), Danielle Goldstein (United States), Pekka Välitalo (Finland), Bartosz Michalik (Poland), France Leclerc (United States), Gail Just (United States), Derry Ainsworth (United Kingdom), Alon Goldsmith (United States/South Africa), Giedo van der Zwan (Netherlands), Pelin Guven (Turkey), Denise Pensky (United States), Jay Calderon (United States), Eric Davidove (United States), Jaejoon Ha (South Korea), Chris van Dolleweerd (Netherlands), Shay Lari-Hosain (United States), Igor Gladkov (Russia), Asako Naruto (Japan), Gabriel Marcos (Venezuela), Justin Roque (France), Fabrizio Intonti (Italy) and Nicola Balestrazzi (Italy)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The top three winners will receive a prize of $1,000, and all winning photographs will be prominently featured in the All About Photo Winners Gallery and published in the printed issue of AAP Magazine #52: Street. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Nature photography is a captivating genre that celebrates the beauty and diversity of the natural world. It embraces landscapes, wildlife, flora, and fauna — each offering its own visual poetry and emotional depth.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Landscape photography captures the grandeur of mountains, rolling hills, lakes, waterfalls, and coastlines, as well as the quiet power of man-made structures reclaimed by nature. Wildlife photography reveals the behavior and spirit of animals in their natural habitats, from tropical rainforests to arid deserts. Flora and fauna photography highlights the intricate colors, textures, and patterns of plants and living organisms, showcasing the delicate artistry of the natural world.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Across all its forms, nature photography seeks to convey the harmony and fragility of our planet. It invites viewers to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the environment — inspiring awareness and a deeper respect for the wonders that surround us.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

All About Photo is pleased to present ‘Gutter Duchess’ by F. Bessma Rhea as the winning project of our November 2025 Solo Exhibition.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Maybe to be a woman is to be hollowed out – or maybe to be a woman is to sing.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Through her raw and poetic lens, F. Bessma Rhea presents Gutter Duchess, a deeply personal photographic series exploring the dualities of womanhood — fragility and strength, silence and voice, vulnerability and power.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The series follows the artist herself and the significant women in her life, each portrait resonating with emotional honesty and magnetic presence. Within these images lies a brutal tenderness — a confrontation with identity, legacy, and the complex beauty of emerging womanhood.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Gutter Duchess is ultimately a celebration of matriarchal love and resilience. It embraces the contradictions that define the feminine experience — what is hidden and what is revealed, what is lost and what is fiercely reclaimed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Through powerful imagery and intimate storytelling, Rhea crafts a visual manifesto on becoming, belonging, and the enduring power of women bound by love.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Huxley-Parlour are pleased to present The Red River by British photographer Jem
Southam, the artist’s third solo exhibition with the gallery. With poetic reflections on
the English countryside and its history, The Red River explores rural, post-industrial
north-west Cornwall, portraying the intertwining of a manufactured landscape and
human industry with nature. First exhibited in 1987 and published in 1989, the series is
a seminal project within British photography.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The Red River was innovative within contemporary paradigms of photographic
technique. It was the photographer’s first resolved work in colour, a practice uncommon
in the 1980s. At times, Southam also subverts conventional compositional techniques
with radical angles and close distances to the subject matter. Amid these technical
transgressions, Southam punctuates the series with traditional landscape imagery
which evokes English Romanticism.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Made in the 1980s and revisited in the 1990s, Southam’s project followed the path of
the Red River from its source near Troon, along its heavily industrialised valley, and
through to the sea. Tin mining gave the slender stream its distinctive red hue. Declining
and almost entirely disappeared when Southam was creating The Red River, the
industrial identity of the valley was steadily transforming from a reality into an historical
fact. He began to photograph the scattered, decaying relics of this industrial past as
they slowly merged with the flora, leaving their scars on the land.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;


While these remnants portray recent history, Southam saw the landscape as a
confluence of its inhabitants and the valley’s primordial formation and ancient
mythologies. The Carboniferous granite, Bronze Age adits, and medieval tales of
travellers lost on a winter’s night, stumbling upon a solitary illuminated window exist in
harmony within these photographs. The artist explores the concept of history itself in
this series, which he sees concentrated within this river and its fern laden banks.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Southam drew heavily from the Book of Genesis for this project: a tempest over a
dark sea, punctuated with white capped waves references God’s creation of light
and darkness out of a formless void. Primeval elements of the landscape, foliage and
the rushing of the river’s red water, reference the second day of creation. Bucolic
idylls juxtapose representations of the despoliation of the Earth and its subsequent
regeneration. Southam’s relationship to the English landscape was profoundly
influenced by poetry, in particular works by Beowulf, John Milton, and John Bunyan.
Wandering throughout the valley and beside the stream, Southam recalled Milton’s
depictions of Paradise, lost and then regained; images like Valley of the Barking Dogs,
Brea Adit draw from the apocalyptic imagery of Paradise Lost, while others are akin to
the beatitude of Paradise Regained. The photographer saw an allegory in his journey
along the Red River that went beyond local history, something universal wrought within
all of the valley’s shattered remains and ‘poisonous tang’, as he calls it, its beauties and
redemptions.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Born in Bristol in 1950, Southam has had solo exhibitions at The Photographers Gallery,
London, Tate St Ives, Cornwall and The Victoria &amp; Albert Museum, London. His work is
held in many important collections, including those of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam,
Museum Folkwang, Essen, the Yale Centre for British Art, New Haven, and the The
Victoria &amp; Albert Museum&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

We’re thrilled to reveal the 25 winners of AAP Magazine #51: Colors, a tribute to the infinite ways photographers interpret and transform the world through color.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Color is everywhere — in fleeting light, in the rhythm of city life, in the quiet harmony of nature. It can soothe or provoke, reveal or conceal, invite us in or push us away. Beyond its visual beauty, color holds emotion, memory, and meaning, shaping how we experience life itself.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

For this new edition of AAP Magazine, we invited photographers from around the globe to explore how color defines their creative vision. The resulting images range from bold, high-saturation compositions that pulse with energy to soft, ethereal tones that evoke calm and introspection. Together, they reveal that color is far more than a visual element — it’s a storytelling force.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The 25 photographers featured in this issue represent 16 countries across 4 continents, each offering a unique perspective on how color transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary. Their work captures the vibrancy and emotional depth that color brings to the photographic medium — reminding us that to see color is to feel.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;b&gt;International Travel Photography Contest: Capturing Journeys &amp; Discoveries&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Early Bird savings end October 17, 2025&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Since the earliest days of photography, travel has been one of its most inspiring subjects. From 19th-century explorers documenting new lands to contemporary photographers capturing cultural encounters, travel photography has always been about more than places — it’s about the people, stories, and emotions found along the way. Now, AAP Magazine invites photographers from around the globe to participate in its 53rd edition, dedicated entirely to the theme of TRAVELS.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This prestigious international photography competition is open to all artists, whether amateur or professional, who wish to share their journeys and perspectives. The theme is completely open—your work can span landscapes, portraits, street scenes, cultural traditions, or personal stories of exploration. Whether you shoot in digital, film, black and white, or use alternative processes, all techniques and styles are welcome.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;b&gt;Why Enter AAP Magazine #53: Travels?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Participating in AAP Magazine’s competition provides photographers with an exceptional platform for global exposure. Winners will receive a total of $1,000 in cash prizes, extensive press coverage, and the opportunity to have their work published in a renowned international photography magazine.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

1st Place Winner will receive $500, an exclusive interview, and their winning image(s) or portfolio published in AAP Magazine #53: Travels. They will also receive a free copy of the magazine and have their work showcased in the online Winners Gallery of All About Photo.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

2nd Place Winner will be awarded $300 and receive the same prestigious publication opportunities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

3rd Place Winner will receive $200, along with a feature in AAP Magazine #53: Travels and a free copy of the magazine.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Honorable Mentions: The next 22 winners (ranked 4th to 25th) will also have their work published in this special edition.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

All About Photo is thrilled to unveil our October Solo Exhibition, &#39;Blueprint&#39; by Benita Mayo&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This project is a deeply personal exploration of memory, loss, and inheritance. Sparked by the sudden passing of my father in 2020, it reflects on the weight of history, the scars of collective trauma, and the fragility of memory. Rooted in Virginia’s complex legacy—from slavery and civil rights struggles to the private wounds carried within families—it weaves together words and images to confront silence, honor resilience, and seek healing through remembrance.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;b&gt;BLUEPRINT:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Memory is unreliable, and time has a way of bending the truth. I have always been on ajourney to unearth and examine the stories that live within me—some through my own experience, but most through inheritance.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

When Daddy suddenly passed in 2020, the tectonic plates of my life forever shifted. In an instant, I knew life would never be the same. As I find myself longing to understand the past, the impermanence of memory is palpable. I feel as if I’m racing toward an invisible finish line.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

My parents were born in Virginia, a state with an indelible imprint on America’s most painful and pivotal chapters: the rise of slavery, the Civil War, and the long struggle for civil rights.Over 350,000 men, women, and children were sold from Richmond’s auction block. Virginia was the capital of the Confederacy, and the Fall of Richmond marked the end of the CivilWar. Later, during a time of “massive resistance,” a neighboring county chose to close its public schools rather than integrate them. This was the Virginia into which my father was born.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

History and politics shaped my family’s story. They directly influenced how we were raised.The most pervasive feelings I remember from childhood were fear and loneliness. We lived with trauma, sorrow, silence, and deep wounding. But at the heart of it all, there was love—and a steadfast hope that tomorrow could be better than today.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Toni Morrison, in The Bluest Eye, urges us not to “forgive and forget,” but to “remember and do better.” Too often, shame and embarrassment silence truth. But only through declaration and revelation can truth and insight rise. Only then can the cracks begin to mend, and healing begin.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Much of what I have struggled with throughout my life has roots in collective trauma. In mysearch to understand what happened to me, I’ve spent 1,571 hours in therapy. It has takendecades to identify the cycles, to stop the bleeding, to clean the wound, and to begin thework of healing. For any wound to heal, this must come first. Then, in time, new tissueforms—a foundation for new skin that is stronger, more resilient.
&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Through words and pictures, I recount the fierce determination of a man caught in the web of history. The deck was stacked against him. But he made a way out of no way. The calmness of the landscape conceals the quiet outrage, the mourning, and the sacred commemoration.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
