The Exposure One Awards have announced the winners of the 2024 One Shot Photo Contest. The winner is Paul Lukin with his arresting photo of fighting roosters titled “A Moment of Suspense.”
The Exposure One Awards were specifically designed to honour those photographers working in black and white by creating a space distinctly tailored to photographers using a monochrome palette. The awards are separated into professional and nonprofessional categories. Here are the rest of the winners:
Professional
1st Place Winner
Paul Lukin – “A Moment of Suspense”
In the heart of the cockpit, two majestic roosters soar through the air. Their feathers ruffle in the intensity of the moment. Surrounding them, a captivated crowd holds their breath, their eyes fixed on the airborne spectacle unfolding before them.
2nd Place Winner
Silke Hullmann – “Absence”
Even without colour, reduced to black and white, the flamingo formations above the marbled waters of Lake Magadi are a masterpiece of nature.
3rd Place Winner
Lenka Klicperová – “Journey to the frontline”
A Russian rocket stuck on a road leading to the village of Terny on the Donbass front in Ukraine. Being on the front lines in Ukraine is extremely dangerous. I have worked in many conflicts before – from Africa to Afghanistan, Nagorno-Karabakh, Iraq, and Syria, but nowhere was it as dangerous as here. And the risk continues to increase, with thousands and thousands of drones being used on the battlefield. Every photograph taken on the front line is bought at enormous risk to the photographer.
Non-Professional
1st Place Winner
Olga Steinepreis – “Brothers”
Two brothers are so different, but sometimes they are as one. They quarrel but cannot live long without each other. After all, neither of them recalls a time before he had a brother.
2nd Place Winner
Serkan Dogus – “Flock of Sheep”
Every day in the Tatvan district of Bitlis, hundreds of sheep make a dusty journey to reach the pasture. Joining the dusty journey and photographing them was an indescribable feeling.
3rd Place Winner
Loredana Sansavini – “Totalità”
A female dress suspended in the air bulging in the wind, an image captured from the bottom up, evokes birth, symbolizing the perpetual cycle of life. Circularity evokes the Totality that connects the birth of man and, simultaneously, the world.
