Landscapes: Honorable Mention 2025 (amateur)
Falaises d'Etretat. Aiguille by Rolandas Urbonavicius (Germany)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Étretat coastline needs no introduction - it's a world-renowned heaven for painters and photographers alike. A place that enchants with its distinctive atmosphere. Though countless artists have painted and photographed this place, each one strives, struggles, and will continue to seek something uniquely their own. Often, the course of events is steered by the weather, an inseparable part of landscape photography, which brings new dimensions to each scene. A stunning cliff and a long exposure helped create this minimal landscape.
