Italian photographers win top prizes in Royal Photographic Society competition

By admin | July, 24, 2013

Antonio Busiello (first picture below) won for his photograph which ‘raises valid and contemporary questions about body image.

Judge Anthony Holland Parkin said: “The Cullatore struck a chord with a number of the judges. In a world obsessed with retouched perfection, Antonio’s honest image of a man proudly displaying his huge calluses challenges the viewer, and raises valid and contemporary questions, about body image.”

Busiello was one of 1,285 photographers from 59 countries to enter the competition, of which 115 were selected for the exhibition.
