AAP Magazine #51: Colors — Celebrating the Power and Emotion of Color in Photography

AAP Magazine proudly presents the 25 winners of Issue #51: Colors — a vibrant exploration of how photographers around the world use color to interpret, define, and transform the visible world.
Color, as both subject and language, holds extraordinary power. It evokes emotion, memory, and atmosphere. Whether in the quiet hues of dawn or the saturated pulse of city lights, color shapes the way we perceive and connect with what surrounds us.

For this new edition, AAP invited photographers to share their vision of color — not just as an aesthetic choice, but as a storytelling tool. The result is a collection of striking, deeply personal works that traverse genres and continents, revealing how tone and light can transform everyday moments into profound visual experiences.

From bold, high-contrast compositions to subtle, painterly palettes, these 25 selected photographers — representing 16 countries across 4 continents — remind us that color is never merely seen; it’s felt. Their work collectively underscores photography’s ability to transcend words and communicate emotion through pure visual harmony.

As with every issue, AAP Magazine #51: Colors continues the publication’s mission to celebrate diversity, creativity, and excellence in contemporary photography — and to provide artists from around the world with a platform for exposure and international recognition.

The Winner is Trevor Cole (Ireland) with the series 'Pastoral Peoples and Practices'
The Second Place Winner is Laurin Strele (Austria) with the series ' Colors of Resilience'
The Third Place Winner is Abdelrahman Alkahlout (Palestine) with the series ' Colors of Resilience'
