Portrait: Honorable Mention 2025 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Each humans face in absolutely unique as the personality does.
Little marks, wrinkles and lines is a visible story of thoughts, feelings and emotions paced by every day. We meet person and look eyes to eyes. This visual dialogue to know each other before we even started to speak is in our nature. Its might take only some seconds but we know so much just by take a look at the person. Parental roots, culture and the way of life is in the portrait too.
Portraiture is always about empathy and humanity first.
That's why my favorite genre is portraiture photography.
When we think someone face is beautiful its light up a little spark of inspiration in our own inner world.
So this beauty is not only about human visual "good looking". It's about aesthetic perception of reality and good impulse inside the viewer. The aesthetic feelings leading us to spiritual and beautiful part of our own nature. Its like a mirror. When we see beauty, humanity and wisdom outside ourself we reach out the same spiritual things in our own character.
And that's the great power of the portraiture genre.
