Judges reveal the 52 best images of 2018
From more than 3000 entries, judges have sorted, sifted and carefully selected 52 shimmering new visions of our nation’s society and environment—48 photographs and four timelapse videos.
“The finalists this year are full of colour and contrast, a reflection of a trend in image-making we’re seeing internationally, but there’s something else going on here as well,” says James Frankham, publisher of New Zealand Geographic and convener of judges. “The images are more positive than in previous years. Photographers are shooting and projecting a vision of New Zealand that is more hopeful, more colourful, more bold, confident and vibrant than we’ve seen previously.
