The Independent Photographer has just announced the winners of its Street Photography Contest, which took place in September 2022.
“Women are dancing with balloons in a back-lane celebration in Tegal, Central Java.”
“My eye was immediately drawn toward the juxtaposition of the two sets of couples fixated on their balloons. This is occurring while a young child in his own private world, is perfectly framed in the center of the image and seems to be enthralled with his balloon; isolated but equally engaging.
“There are so many amazing elements captured in this intriguing image. From the cinematic feel and mood produced by the lighting and layers of tones and shapes to the overall composition and cunning perspective, along with the technical process, all are important ingredients needed to make such a unique and surreal image.
“A wonderful image that showcases the potential of more elevated perspectives in street photography. Captured from above, the dark figures and their umbras form an arresting composition that almost verges on abstract, and immediately brings to mind the work of 20th-century greats, René Burri and Andre Kertesz.” – The Independent Photographer editors“Shot on Peachtree Center Avenue in Atlanta, Georgia.
