Title : The Light Before The Darkness
Description: I love to work with Underwater Photography because of the Silhouette capabilities using the sun as the light source. It is not very often do we (photographers) get to use the sun in the middle of the day as it can often weash out a shot in an instance. However once underwater with the barrier of the surface, positioning subjects against the sun can create some of the most spectacular contrasts and silhouette opportunities available. I chose this shot because it emphasises that feeling of first dipping underwater for a dive, to lose the natural light as you delve further and further into the blue. Within a silhouette you lose a lot of personable features or details creating just an outline of the event as it unfolds. This is very similar to diving, surrounded by equipment in a world where you cannot talk, or play on an iPhone or hand over a business card a lot of your “identity” is lost, especially as you quickly become the inferior species in an alien world. A silhouette of your former-self.
Photographer Name : Sankar Salvady
Title: The Cyclists
Description: While I was doing a photowalk in Alviso (San Jose) , in California I noticed this beautiful and elevated biking cum running trail and a bright sky with beautiful clouds in the background. It was a silhouette for the asking and I waited for for a runner or cyclist to pass by. To my good fortune, two cyclists passed by, one of whom noticed me and waved his hands, making the click more interesting.

Incredible photos of course, but the jury could have well selected some diverse snaps too, did no one found some silhouette in day light? So many of these appear so much similar to each other….
