İstanbul Photo Awards 2018

The Istanbul Photo Awards is an international news photography competition organized by Anadolu Ajansı (AA), a global news agency with more than a century of history. Aimed at advancing the field of photojournalism, the competition honors the efforts of courageous and talented professional photographers from around the world, awarded strictly based on merit. Over the years, it has grown into one of the world’s most respected and well-known photojournalism contests.

The Istanbul Photo Awards 2018 photobook showcases award-winning images from the previous year in categories such as sports, environment, portrait, and daily life—featuring scenes ranging from Rohingya refugee camps to the World Biathlon Championships and the flamboyant subculture of the Sapeurs in Congo. The cover features Free Mosul by Rasmus Flindt Pedersen, winner of second prize in the Single News category.
