Luke O’Donovan – Ferrybridge CC #3
The second edition of under 30 photographic contest Trieste Photo Young ended with the victory of Luke O’Donovan.
The photo Ferrybridge CC # 3 by the young English author won the challenge against Luna Nascente by Francesco Aglieri Rinella during the live Final, Saturday 29 October in the auditorium of the Museo Revoltella, as part of the Trieste Photo Days 2022 festival.
Super-guest Susan Meiselas chose the winning photo, personally rewarding Luke O’Donovan.
The contest began last June and saw 500 young photographers from all over the world in the competition, 207 of whom ranked in the Groups phase through the online vote of the Jury (composed of Andrei Tudose, Angelo Cucchetto, Arnaud Montagard, Bob Patterson, Claudia Colecchia, Dino Kužnik, Ilya Shtutsa, Jamie Fyson Howard, Lorenzo Zoppolato, K Madhavan Pillai, Nicolò Melli, Michael Itkoff, Michail Moscholios, Philippe Litzler, Taya Iv, Tom Young).
During the summer, the matches were played between the first and second ranked images of different Groups. The winning photos of each match went to “collide” in the next phase, according to the bracket: Round of 32, Round of 16 and Quarter Finals.
Four authors have reached the Semifinals for the two live matches at Trieste Photo Days: Monica Sposito vs. Luke O’Donovan and Romain Miot vs. Francesco Aglieri Rinella. Nino Migliori brought the photos of Luke O’Donovan and Francesco Aglieri Rinella to the final.
