Abstract: Honorable Mention 2025 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This photo was taken during a trip. On an April day in 2025, after dinner with my closest friends, we walked along the road just as the heavy rain had stopped. Water rushed down the sloped pavement, tracing ephemeral streams under the streetlights. Overflowing with joy, my friend Yuki waded through the currents with childlike abandon. I captured the moment on my phone, and the resulting image became one of our favorites — a photograph where liquid light dances with hidden emotions. Though I later edited it into black-and-white on my iPhone, I'm still amazed by the raw inspiration of that fleeting moment.
AUTHOR
I was born in China and embarked on my journey as an independent photographer in Shanghai in 2016. Though I haven’t received formal professional training in photography, I believe I possess a unique perspective on light, color, and composition. I have an instinctive ability to recognize moments worth capturing, no matter the time or place.
