“Zyne International Photography Awards (ZIPA) 2025”• 2025• Mesr Desert, Farahzad Village, Isfahan Province, Iran

Photographed from above in Iran’s Mesr Desert, this aerial image captures a herd of camels moving across the vast, textured landscape of the desert. Seen from the sky, the camels become small, rhythmic forms against the expansive patterns of sand, emphasizing the relationship between nomadic life, livestock, and the harsh yet visually distinctive environment of the Iranian desert. The composition transforms an everyday scene of desert life into an abstract visual study of movement, scale, rhythm, and the coexistence of humans, animals, and landscape.
