Delightful family cooking photo wins an international award for food photography | See how nice it is

A photo of a young family happily preparing a meal at home in China has won a major prize for photography.

Li Huifeng won the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year 2021 (Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year 2021) for a photo titled Taste, taken in Licheng, Shanxi Province.

“This image is technically excellent for both light and texture use,” said award founder and director Caroline Kenyon.

“But what raises her to the level of historical significance is the depth and passion of her narrative. She talks about a year of isolation and life at home, and she talks about life in small communities of close relatives.”

“Here, the scene is drenched in love, with echoes of Madonna and Child (a title that usually refers to the visual representation of the Virgin Mary and her son Jesus in splendid historical paintings). An exceptional image that perfectly demonstrates that photography does not need shock or disturbance to be wonderful or memorable. The splendor remains in the mind. ”

As the competition entered its tenth year, judges analyzed more than 10,000 entries from more than 70 countries around the world. The winners were announced online through a live event.

Here are some of the winners in the competition’s categories, with descriptions provided by the photographers themselves.
