LosT贼 Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 A cold winter day" by Luca Cornago Luca Cornago/Agora Speaking to Agora, Cornago said his hands were frozen while photographing the Neuschwanstein Castle in Schwangau, Germany. "The architecture of this castle is stunning," he told the photography app. "It reminded me of my childhood and Walt Disney." "Cairo" by Banu Diker Banu Diker/Agora Diker found this building in Cairo, Egypt, and was captivated by its colour. "The rustiness of the building was the only different colour in the picture, because the reflection on the windows reflected the same blue as the sky," she told Agora. "When I realised this, I thought the contrast was beautiful and I took the photo." "Low fog in Moscow" by Sergei Poletaev Sergei Poletaev/Agora As its name suggests, this image was taken in Moscow, Russia. Poletaev told Agora that he used a drone to get the shot, and did so around 3 a.m. "The fog was very dense, so I didn't even see the tower itself from my vantage point," he said. "But when I took off my drone, I saw this striking picture: a thin sky needle above the sea of fog, with a shadow that makes it endless. It was the best sunrise of that summer." "Golden Bridge" by Tran Tuan Viet Tran Tuan Viet/Agora It's no surprise that Viet's photo of the Golden Bridge in Vietnam was named the winner of Agora's #Architecture2020 contest. Not only does it show a unique bridge that's held by larger-than-life hands, but it also captures the beauty of its surrounding landscape. "The Vessel" by Katharina Imhof Katharina Imhof/Agora The Germany-based photographer took this shot of The Vessel, a tourist attraction, while in New York City. "One of the best moments of my life" by Talha Arshad Talha Arshad/Agora "Every year, millions of pilgrims head to Mecca, the holiest city for Muslims, for the Hajj pilgrimage - which is one of the five pillars of Islam," Arshad told Agora. "When I went there, I could feel Allah at every heartbeat. It's a place of unity, equality, and peace. I consider myself so lucky that I experienced this beautiful moment."
