Absolute Winner: My Copyright By Patrice Quillard
Honoring monochromatic artistry, the 2023 Black and White Photo Awards winners step into the limelight. Esteemed globally, this photography competition celebrates black and white’s magnetic charm, surpassing expectations this year.
Running from January 1st to June 15th, the 2023 competition invited submissions, culminating in champion announcements on August 19th, aligning with World Photography Day. With unprecedented engagement, nearly 1700 photographers from 92 nations contributed around 3000 monochrome images across five categories: Architecture, Street, Portrait, Fauna and Flora, and Landscape.
In an artistic spectacle, Patrice Quillard from Froberville emerges as the “Absolute Winner” with the opus “My Copyright.” Quillard’s lens captured an elegant gelada primate in a captivating gaze, revealing its dominance. Quillard explains, “For a brief moment, he turned, looked at me intensely, and I grasped his troop leadership. An unforgettable moment, just what I aimed to capture.”
