The Best Photos from 2015 Fine Art Photography Awards

Fine Art Photography Awards (FAPA) announced winners of their annual photography competition.

Ukrainian photographer Maxim Dondyuk has been announced as the overall winner of Professional category with the title: Professional Fine Art Photographer of the Year 2015 and $3000 prize money. His winning series called ‘Culture of the confrontation’ documents 3 months of bloody clashes, tears, fear, Molotov cocktails, burning car tires and deaths during Ukrainian revolution in 2013.

Additionally, in Amateur category Irish photographer Jason Mcgroarty was announced as Amateur Fine Art Photographer of the Year 2015 with $2000 prize money. His winning series called ‘Project Totem’ capture the heart-stopping moment when the wild breaches the barriers of the city and reminds us that the line between humans and wildlife is not as clear-cut as we would like to believe in, and that in the animal kingdom, the only thing we can count on is unpredictability, that the unexpected should be expected.

In 2015 Fine Art Photography Awards received more than 3000 submissions from 77 countries around the world. Winners were selected by highly acclaimed panel of international judges, including: Qingjun Huang, Carolyn Guild, Klaus Kampert, Pini Hamou, Rupert Vandervell, Pongsatorn Sukhum, Kilian Schönberger, Peter Kool, Lara Zankoul and GMB Akash.

Fine Art Photography Awards conducts an annual competition for Professional and Amateur photographers. FAPA mission is to celebrate Fine Art photography and to discover emerging talent from around the world.
