German photographer Hans-Christian Schink has won the first REAL Photography Award, which ING Real Estate presents biannually to an international photographer shooting nature, development or architecture. Schink received the €50,000 (about $77,100) prize at a ceremony in Rotterdam, Netherlands, on March 20.
Schink was awarded the prize for his black-and-white print of water and mountains, which he produced using a technique known as true solarization. The image is part of a series of 12 photographs depicting Earth’s movement.
