Once again, My Modern Met is showing us some amazing photography that was submitted for the 2012 Sony World Photography Awards. This competition is run by the World Photography Organization which is a group that supports the aspirations of avid photography lovers and practitioners from around the world. To say that these people see magic through their lenses would be an understatement once you’ve seen the winning photographs. If you missed this year’s competition, fear not because the 2013 competition opens on June 1, 2012.
The shortlist for the 2012 competition was just released, and the winners will be announced at the photo exhibition that will run from April 27 to May 20, 2012 at the Somerset House. If you’re in London, then you should definitely check out the hundreds of wonderful submissions. I found this awe-inspiring image from the Guardian UK. Amazingly enough, it’s from the student focus shortlist, so I can only imagine what the other categories will hold.
