Un’edizione davvero speciale, almeno per il Bel Paese, quella degli SWPA 2013: ben otto italiani tra primi, secondi e terzi classificati in diverse categorie!
E per l’edizione 2014, sono già aperte le iscrizioni!
Con i prestigiosi SWPA Sony si impegna a mostrare e premiare nuovi talenti nel mondo della fotografia attraverso una serie di concorsi annuali aperti sia a fotoamatori che fotografi professionisti.
Gli oltre 122.000 iscritti, provenienti da 170 paesi, dell’edizione di quest’anno, sono sufficienti a dare la dimensione di questa autorevole competizione.
Sulle pagine del numero 81 di Tutto Digitale, dove avevamo dato ampio spazio ad una selezione delle foto in concorso, era già chiara la percezione che si sarebbe trattato di un’edizione di alto livello. Scoprire poi, durante la serata delle premiazioni a Londra, che il Bel Paese, tra vincitori, secondi e terzi classificati, ha conquistato 8 premi in totale, è stata una grande soddisfazione.
Tra i professionisti, nella sezione Arts & Culture, si è guadagnata il primo posto Myriam Meloni, mentre nella categoria Contemporary Issues e in quella Lifestyle, primi sono risultati rispettivamente Valerio Bispuri e Alice Caputo. Tra i secondi classificati: Giorgio Barrera e Niccolò Rastrelli, nella categoria Arts&Culture, e Paolo Pellegrin in quella di Current Affairs. Fra i terzi classificati si sono distinti Fabio Bucciarelli (categoria Current Affairs), Alice Pavesi (categoria Fashion & Beauty) e Fausto Podavini (categoria Lifestyle).
Di seguito le immagini (una per ogni serie) vincitrici in tutte le categorie dei professionisti.
