10 Talented Photographers That Won The 35th AAP Magazine Photography Awards In The Theme “Colors”
We are absolutely thrilled to announce and showcase the exceptional talents of the 25 remarkable photographers who have been honored in the latest installment of AAP Magazine, the splendid #35: Colors edition.
Our world is an exquisite tapestry, woven together by the kaleidoscope of colors that surround us, ranging from the vibrant green of the earth beneath our feet to the boundless expanse of the cerulean sky above. Our reality is a far cry from the stark duality of black and white, for the rich and diverse palette of colors adds depth and nuance to our existence. Can you even begin to imagine a world devoid of these vibrant hues, where the very essence of life is muted and dulled?
Colors hold a ubiquitous presence in our daily lives, their influence often subtle and imperceptible, yet profoundly impactful. Countless studies have illuminated the remarkable capacity of colors to convey a wide spectrum of emotions, shape our moods, and even influence our cognitive processes. It's no wonder that photographers are continually drawn to the multifaceted realm of colors, as they are well aware of the profound significance that colors carry in their artistry.

10 PHOTOS
#1 Eric Seidner (United States)
"Singapore's historic Old Hill Street Police Station is famous for its more than 900 windows painted in the colors of the rainbow. This image is part of a series displaying the use of rainbow color schemes in architecture."
#2 Sebastian Piórek (Poland)
"A playground full of joy hidden somewhere deep in the south of Poland shows its beauty in the first flash of sun from above. This region is known for its mines and strongly urban character of architecture, so such a colorful playground is a kind of pearl from the ground and also from the air."
#3 The Winner Of Aap Magazine 35 Colors: From Series "Thinking Of Guy Bourdin" By Kyla Rys (USA)
"Thinking of Guy Bourdin is an homage to the iconic French fashion photographer, Guy Bourdin. The series applies the photographer’s primary color palette in with vibrant reds and blues. Such contrast emphasizes the striking details of contemporary fashion staples."
#4 Jyotsna Bhamidipati (United States)
"This image was taken as a part of my Motherhood project while I was making some apple pie with a side of asparagus for my son and my daughter decided to join and help me to cook for her brother."
#5 Carolyn Silvernail (USA)
"This is a photo taken of a small waterway near Fort Pulaski National Monument, outside of Savannah, GA. I live in Savannah and am inspired by the swamps and marshes that surround us here on the coast."
#6 Martina Holmberg (Sweden)
"The images are from my series Mayfly. The images are photographed with expired or overexposed polaroid film. They are snapshots of life, a sense of humility about the constant miracle of life, and the awareness of our impermanence. How we all belong together and how strong and at the same time fragile life can be."
#7 Jaroslav Mares (Czech Republic)
"I took this picture in the locker room of a local high school. A random blue and white composition as if waiting for a photographer. I was lucky to be there. The image is part of the Blue World series, which I compiled from images from my archive."
#8 Marlène Delcambre (France)
"I saw this beautiful building on the internet and I decided to take a self-portrait in this place. I took a flight to Spain. With my black dress and my white socks, I found the perfect harmony to play in this beautiful colorful place.
''I’m walking alone and yet
It's in the exhausted rhythm of my shoes
May red, pink, and blue give me back this vision
That the earth is only an immense unfolded newspaper
Sometimes a photograph passes...''"
#9 Rohina Hoffman (USA)
"Artichoke for steaming with aromatics is part of a series called “In Gratitude”, an homage to food and family. Prompted by the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is a series of portraits of myself, my husband, and my three children showcasing the items that we used to create our daily meals. I aim to highlight the words of MFK Fisher “Our three basic needs, for food, security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined, that we cannot straightly think about one without the others.”"
#10 Emily Fisher (USA)
