Photojournalism: Honorable Mention 2023 (amateur)
Traditonal Farming by Stefan Beyer (Spain)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This photo is part of a project documenting the annual cycle of traditional Chufa (tiger nut) farming in the Spanish town of Alboraya. The seeds of the grass-like plant are harvested after burning down the dried plants. For this to take place farmers must wait for the right meteorological conditions in autumn.
