"Gioia Dopo La Vittoria"| Giovanni Gagliardo (Italy)
Despite economic difficulties worldwide, people continued taking photographs. Although still life and everyday objects were common themes this year, these quiet, peaceful moods were sprinkled with the excitement of recreational themes
such as skydiving, hot-air balloons and underwater photography. For example, the Grand Prize, entitled "Self portrait," offered a fascinating new kind of image that was once thought impossible.
