Cameron Scott considered re-proposing a challenge we faced a few years ago, in 2018, which involves photographing people from behind. This approach invites mystery and introspection, allowing viewers to project their own emotions onto the scene. It captures a sense of solitude, journey, or quiet observation, often conveying mood and story more subtly than a direct portrait ever could.
Special thanks to Cameron Scott, who organised the votes, and the Gang members who offered themselves as judges:
Martin Agius, Delfim Correlo, Keef Charles, Batsceba Hardy, Federico Borobio, Niklas Lindskog, Don Scott, Nadia Eeckhout, Cassian Edwards and Richard Keshen
This challenge has shown that some photographers, like Bruce Saille, Martin Ingber and Marci Lindsay, for example, have a knack for capturing back shots.
These photos often carry a sense of humour and can tell a story, inspire reflection, or entertain us, even when taken from behind.
The winner is:
