All About Photo Awards 2018
Concorsi, Stati Uniti, Miami, 01 November 2017
« To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis. »
Henri Cartier-Bresson
