Honorable Mention

DESCRIPTION
The snow falling transforms an ordinary landscape into a drawing or an etching; and looking at the resulting image I can’t help thinking of it as an illustrated story of this family of Araucarias enduring the snowfall. Life can be much easier if we are together. AUTHOR
Benjamin Briones Grandi is a Chilean fine-art photographer. Initially, Benjamin started doing classical landscape photography, but in time developed a rather conceptual work producing minimalistic atmospheric landscapes. The subject matter of his work is not the territory photographed, nor what it felt being in those places. The real subject matter is the person looking at the resulting image, it is about the viewer that uses the landscape as a stage where thoughts, memories and feelings can be laid out.
