Photography Award Launch of All About Photo Award 2021

Second Place Winner: Gabriele Galimberti. Florida. Avery Skipalis (33) – Tampa, Florida / THE AMERIGUNS - In the States there are more guns than people. “120.5 registered firearms for every 100 residents” and the statistic doesn’t count “not-registers firearms”. As an European, I started wondering if owning many weapons by a single person or family is a common habit in the US. I traveled across the US and created a series of 45 portrait of families or single individuals, including all races and beliefs, together with their firearms. www.gabrielegalimberti.com © Gabriele Galimberti, Italy, 2nd place winner, All About Photo Awards 2020

Particular Merit Mention: Francesco Pace Rizzi. Beyond the wall. Sometimes a shot cannot contain emotions, memories, moods ... you need more ... you have to "chisel" the image to make that evolutionary-creative leap necessary to reach the right size. This photo is intended as a small tribute to a great Master: Henri Cartier Bresson, the one who first knew how to show me the reality of ever with new eyes: more human, artistic, poetic. His photos taken between the 1950s and 1970s in Basilicata (my homeland) and around the world have changed the perspective of things in me, creating a fantastic "imprinting" and becoming a source of great inspiration. © Francesco Pace Rizzi, Italy, Particular Merit Mention, All About Photo Awards 2020
