The Sony World Photography Awards has announced the winners of the architectural category of their 2017 Open Category awards.

At Cambyte, we present the winner and explore other inspiring photographers (runner-ups) who in our opinion, ought to be followed. Tim Cornbill, the winner, received a Sony a7s ii with kit lens to inspire him to continue competing and winning.
Winning Work Tim Cornbill
“Oculus,” for his capture of a geometric concrete facade along the River Spree, Berlin.
Cornbill says “As an architect, I’m passionate about capturing buildings, and I’m always on the lookout for photogenic designs. I was really struck by the sheer scale of this façade and the visual impact of the circle, which I hope I’ve been able to convey in this everyday street scene, I am truly thrilled to have been recognized in the world’s largest photography competition and it will be amazing to see the photo exhibited in London.”
