POTM - Behind the Shot!

We got so many great submissions this month for our ‘Hands’ challenge! The judges had a tough time, but in the end, Rome-based street photographer Fabio Renzi won the day.  There's a lot to love about Fabio’s photo: the optical illusion of the extra hand, the stark contrast between light and shadow, the pastel colours that Rome provides so well, the repetition of the shape of the bollard on the wall behind it, and the pattern at the top-left that looks like someone rolled a die and threw a five.

Congrats, Fabio!

Two ice creams are better, Rome 2020

We caught up with Fabio to find out more about this intriguing shot. He told us:

“In the center of Rome there are ice cream parlors on practically every corner. I often stand at the exit of these to try to take some interesting photos. When I took the contest photo, my attention was captured by the sharp cut of light. I lurked in the hope that an interesting situation would arise, and in the end, it did. The person holding the second ice cream was one step behind the woman in the photo, completely in shadow, and there was only a fraction of a second in which that person had just their arm with the ice cream in the light. I found myself in front of a surreal and funny scene, which thanks to luck and timing, I was able to capture.”

Thanks, Fabio, and congratulations again!

At the corner. Kabul’s day labourers waiting for a job. 90 percent of Afghans are living below the poverty line and 83 percent are living on or below $1.50 per day. I debated posting this photograph because I don’t photograph people begging for money. But this man was alongside a long line of day labourers, ready with their wheelbarrows to help out with anything, often wheeling groceries home for a few Afghanis. For me, the scene was it was a reminder of the economic situation in the country. After talking to them, one word rings through: Pride. Pride despite their difficulties and worries. Pride in their work, in their abilities and in their families. And they talked about how they joked together to help pass the long day. Their support and enjoyment of one another was very touching. #Kabul #Afghanistan Photo & words by Lynzy Billing @lynzybilling published on Wed April 21, 2021. #everydayafghanistan #everydaykabul #photojournalism #reportagespotlight #reportagephotography #dailylife #streetphotography #streetscenes #streetphotographyincolors #everydayasia #streetphotocolor #everydayeverywhere #greenhues #mobilephotography #labor #poverty #economiccrisis (at Kabul, Afghanistan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfrHafRNX6t/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Picture of the Month - Behind the Shot!

Congratulations to Vienna-based photographer Petra Rautenstrauch for winning our challenge this month - ‘Pets’-  among some stiff competition. (People and animals, am I right?) Despite the serious look on the cat’s face, this photo is pure fun, with a hint of Magritte’s The Son of Man surrealism. 

Me, as a cat with a hat, Vienna, 2021

We asked Petra to tell us the backstory of this self-portrait/animal photo:

‘I found this cat behind the window about two years ago in a house on my street. It was a lucky shot. I later found out that there are three cats living in this flat. On the same day I took the image with the hat, I also took pictures of another one of the cats, sitting in another window, with a mosquito net. She looked so scared and so beautiful at the same time; I was fascinated by her.

Since finding out there were three cats living there, I always walk by those windows to hopefully see them again - or even better - to make another funny shot with a reflection. But I had never found a cat sitting in the window again. Mostly the curtains are closed or the cats aren’t in the windows when I walk by - until last year. I passed the flat again with my young dog and found the red cat sitting behind the mosquito net, giving us the same beautiful, frightened look.

I still pass by this flat. You never know what tomorrow will bring.’

Congratulations, again, Petra! Sometimes we return to a place many times in the hope that it yields more treasures!
