The winners of the Volotea Travel Photo Awards
The second edition of the Volotea Travel Photo Awards, the international photo competition promoted by Volotea to celebrate travel and the emotions of its destinations through photography, has come to an end. The initiative was a great success, with over 8,000 images sent, of which more than 2,000 from Italian destinations with Venice, Naples, Florence, Rome and Olbia among the most portrayed subjects in the shots received from all over Europe.
After a careful selection, the jury of experts announced the winners of the two categories in the competition: Professionals and Amateurs.
Category Professionals
In the Professional category, the first prize was awarded to the Italian Rachele Cason for the photograph "In the silence of sunset", taken in Santorini. The shot captures a moment of quiet and contemplation: a man who, after ringing the bells, stops to observe the landscape, immersed in an atmosphere suspended between light and silence. Rachele Cason wins a year of free flights with Volotea, a three-night stay in a destination in the network and a Fujifilm professional camera.
Amateur Category
For the Amateur category, the award went to the French Clarisse Dupuis with "Le vent dans tes cheveux défaits", made in Lanzarote. The image tells of the power of nature and the amazement of children in front of the journey, with an authentic and emotionally charged gaze. Clarisse Dupuis wins €1,000 in Volotea flights, a Fujifilm digital camera and a TropicFeel backpack.
