Best Snapshot
Jury: Patricia Steur, photographer
Prize: Canon Camera EOS 600D
Patricia Steur: "Even more exciting to see Amsterdam while flying through the air! Wow what a great moment to photograph. There is speed in the picture and the strangeness at the same time because of the feet flying through the air. The feet tell a story of friendship and having a good time in Amsterdam. I love snapshots and I love that everybody has a camera or smartphone to take snapshots. I can’t say it enough, keep taking those snapshots. It’s great fun and important as a timeline and as a communication device."
The contest is finished!
The exhibition Snapshot. Painters and photography, 1888-1915 in the Van Gogh Museum shows snapshots of painters, who experimented with photography towards the end of the 19th century. They took thousands of snapshots, at home or in the city. And now, in the early 21st century, we're still clicking away.
In the past three months people from all over the world joined this contest. Every month was in another theme from the exhibition with the emphasis on Amsterdam:
- October: Family and friends in Amsterdam
- November: City life in Amsterdam
- December: Posing in Amsterdam
