Here are the winning photos of 2023 Minimalist Photography Awards. The Minimalist Photography Awards stand as a collective of artists who craft quiet narratives by stripping away distractions, allowing visual stories to emerge from the interplay of light, shadow, and subject.
This year Photographer of the year award won by Martin Annand from United Kingdom for his series “Ashored”. About the series in his words “This collection of images from the coast of the UK and further afield are born from the love of long exposure photography and the coast. As a child a trip to the seaside was always an exciting prospect, an event, an adventure. These feelings still stir now when I head to the coast with my camera. The anticipation of what’s to come. Trying to find interesting subjects before time and tide swallows them up forever.”
