Frederik Buyckx 的作品捕捉了冬日來臨之際的自然變遷。這幅名為 「Whiteout」 的照片以阿爾巴尼亞山為背景，展現了一隻驢在雪地中掙扎的過程。

他的作品集中地記錄了巴爾幹半島、北歐及中亞地區偏遠地帶與世隔絕的人們，他們與大自然緊密的關係。

評委會主席 Zelda Cheatle 給他的評語是：「為了回歸到從本質看攝影，我們選擇了一系列風光攝影作品。風光常常被忽視，但它是我們生存的中心。這些由攝影師精心拍攝的美麗作品需要人們的欣賞。我希望這個獎項可以激勵更多攝影師去拍攝這些在每個人身邊可愛喜人的景象，而不僅是去捕捉亂世中可怕的一面。」

Frederik Buyckx has scooped Photographer of the Year at this year』s Sony World Photography Awards, with a series called Whiteout that explores how nature is transformed by winter. 「I have chosen a series of landscapes so that we may return to the essence of looking at photography,」 comments Zelda Cheatle, chair of judges at Sony』s World Photography Organisation.

「Landscape is often overlooked but it is central to our existence. I hope this award will inspire many more photographers to take pictures that do not simply encompass the terrible aspects of life in these troubled times but also capture some of the joys and loveliness in each and every environment,」 she continues.

Buyckx』s work, which was picked out from 227,00 entries by photographers from 183 countries, was shot in remote areas of the Balkans, Scandinavia and Central Asia, where people often live in isolation and in close contact with nature. 「There is a peculiar transformation of nature when winter comes, when snow and ice start to dominate the landscape and when humans and animals have to deal with the extreme weather,」 explains the Belgian photographer, who freelances for De Standaard. 「The series investigates this struggle against disappearance.」

「I am especially proud of this year』s selection of Photographer of the Year,」 comments Scott Gray, CEO of the World Photography Organisation. 「In many cases, it is easy to shock but that it can be so tremendously difficult to capture a sophisticated elegance, that really is so beautiful it shows the medium of photography at its best.」
