'Laundry as Art Photography' 
They tell quiet stories about the people who wear the clothes and the lives that unfold around them. Whether photographed on a rural clothesline swaying in the breeze or beneath the fluorescent glow of a neighborhood laundromat, laundry has the power to transform the mundane into visual poetry.
Delightful daily life and original images were submitted.

The winners with the most votes are: 
1st place : Fernando Alves

2nd place: Uschi Hermann
3rd place : Yousef Sayadi

Congratulations to the winners and honourable mentions. 
Thanks to all the participants in the contest 'Laundry as Art Photography'

 


Current contest theme is 'Silhouette Photography'
Silhouette photography is all about capturing subjects so that they lack detail. The focus is on creating striking black shapes against a beautifully exposed background. It’s a technique that emphasizes the shape and form of the subject, resulting in minimalistic and graphic effects.

This contest will end on Sunday the 13th of September at midnight.
The sooner you upload your submission the more chance you have to gather the most votes.

Finalmente la vera “Fotografia” quella che nasce semplicemente dalla macchina fotografica, semplice racconto del quotidiano. Senza l’uso eccessivo di artifici, di copia e incolla nella post produzione.
