The contest focuses on original, artful, and creative work. They say that it’s not just about the technical quality, but more about “soulful photography” which has an important message that reflects our current times or reminds us of important events and movements in history. And this is exactly what the winning photos are like. Other than winners, APA also awards second and third place winners in each of the categories Take a look at the rest of category winners below, and find more info on APA’s website and Photo Publicity.
