Color makes a spectacular splash in AAP photo competition
AAP announces the winners in its latest photographic contest
Colorful photographs from around the world have been competing in the latest competition from All About Photo – and now the winners of the Colors contest have been announced.
The overall winner is Paul Brouns, from The Netherlands won $500 for is warm red architectural image entitled "Afterglow'.
"The last sunlight was being projected on this red building by the opposite windows," explains Paul. "Its rhythmic effect has different levels: the actual windows, the reflected ones, the volumes of the balconies and the mirror image of the opposite block of houses and the striking red color. I was lucky to have taken along my little son, whom I asked to pose in front of the building".
The second place went to Forrest Walker from the United States, with the third prize being picked up by German photographer Frank Herfort.
