Bulgaria"In the Mundari cattle camps, kids are doing most of the daily work. Kids collect the fresh cow dung and put it into piles which are then set on fire. Those fires are useful as they repel the (extremely) numerous and voracious flies and mosquitoes of the South Sudanese countryside."

We launched the first edition of AAP (All About Photo) Magazine in March 2018. Our goal was simple yet exciting: to present the incredible photography of talented artists, all centered around a particular theme. This magazine was our way of celebrating and sharing the remarkable work of photographers from different corners of the world.

“Keep On” From The Series “Dreamscapes” By Thaddäus Hozzography Biberaue

For this 27th edition of AAP Magazine, we were looking for work that would celebrate colors. In the end, we chose twenty-five photographers (as it happens, a majority of women!) from 15 different countries and 5 continents. Their color palette is diverse: bold, vibrant as well as pastel, or even monochromatic, but each time their conscious choice adds to the photograph’s esthetic appeal and conveys sensory pleasure.

United States"The colors of the Fourth of July are spectacular. Fireworks fan out over the sky to entertain and awe those who gather to celebrate the birth of our nation. This image was taken in Canandaigua, New York at the CMAC amphitheater and outdoor entertainment venue. I loved not only the red and yellow of the fireworks set against a deepening blue sky, but also the way the light created a red halo around those watching on the display and reflected on the hillside ground."

Canada"Etymology is sometimes deeply poetic. Photography means “drawing with light” from the Greek words phōtós and graphê. This extraodinary meaning inspired the aesthetic research behind this series. I chose to use solely the primary and secondary colors of light : red, green, blue, cyan, magenta and yellow. I am always looking for minimalism and harmony with three ideas in mind: simple shapes, at least two dominant colors, dark and intense tone."
