THEME #39Winners2022OCT
NIGHT
WINNERS LIST
THEME SUMMARY

From the theme of "night" many things come to mind. Not only night scenery, but also darkness, sleep, silence, and tomorrow. When there's little light, or rather in places where it's difficult to see, the parts we cannot see bring out all sorts of imagination within us. The judge Sakiko Nomura has continued to take sensual pictures of male nudes in darkness and in night scenery, both in black and white and in color. "Night" is an indispensible theme in Nomura's work. By slightly changing the point of view in the scenery you usually see, something new will probably appear. Try to capture your own expression of "night".
