En tan solo un año, los Sony World Photography Awards se han convertido en el certamen de fotografía más grande del mundo, es organizado por la World Photography Organisation (WPO) que en su última edición, atrajo a más de 173.000 concursantes representando a 170 países, pero para este 2016 se ha presentado un sorprendente incremento de 33% en la participación, quedando en 230.103 concursantes de 183 países.
Lo atractivo de este concurso es que no tiene costo y cualquier persona puede participar, las categorías son: Profesional, Abierta, Juvenil, Premios Nacionales y Foco Estudiantil. El pasado mes de enero se cerró la recepción de imágenes y poco a poco se han dado a conocer los preseleccionados, así como los ganadores de cada categoría, siendo los Premios Nacionales los primeros en anunciarse y los que conoceremos el día de hoy.
Las 60 mejores fotografías nacionales
Los Premios Nacionales otorgan un reconocimiento a lo mejor del mundo, el concurso es abierto y a diferencia de la categoría profesional donde se piden varias fotos, aquí el jurado se basa en una sola fotografía, la mejor de cada fotógrafo de cada país inscrito en la categoría. El resultado son 60 espectaculares fotografías que nos presentan el mundo desde la perspectiva de uno de sus habitantes.
