  • I am an Italian photographer. This is a candid shot that was taken in a crowded mall with an iPhone 8, while teenagers were preparing for a brief show of classical dance. The vantage point from a balcony and the natural pastel tones made this shot possible, in an otherwise uninspiring environment. Thank you for your award! Laura Chiesa

  • The gate to the outside, or maybe the gate to a home behind the mist. Colors to die for.

  • This is not a Picasso, but the photograph of this elderly couple looking to understand does remind of the famous Picasso quote, “It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.”
