In pictures: 2023 Sony World Photography Awards
The Winners of the 2023 Sony World Photography Awards have been announced, with Edgar Martins named as Photographer of the Year for his series, Our War .
The Project is an homage to Martins' friend, photojournalist Anton Hammerl , who was shot and killed during the Libyan Civil War in 2011.
Martins chose to reflect on the question: how does one tell A Story when There is No Witness , no testimony, no evidence, no subject?
" It is a huge honour to be recognised - and although I Am philosophical about awards and the subjective nature of someone's choice, knowing That There were over 180,000 entries to this year's Professional competition is very humbling, " says Martins.
" In this case, it is also quite an emotional experience because I get to honour My Friend on a world stage and bring attention to The Family 's plight to find his remains. "
Martins' work triumphed in the Portraiture category of The Professional competition.
Here are The Other category winners, alongside comments from the photographers.

" My photographs were taken above bodies of water near Tricity in northern Poland. "
PortfolioJames Deavin
" This portfolio was shot in The First half of 2022 in Saudi Arabia , where I was based at The Time .
" Given more time, I think these pictures would have fallen into more defined projects or narratives, perhaps relating to the large migrant worker and expat population (of which I was part), or Saudi car culture.
" As it is, I believe this collection shows my style and technique as a Photographer - There is no deliberate connection between the images, other than I was searching for special photographs That could eventually develop into projects. "
