won 2nd place in the ‘Power’ category at the prestigious Hamdan International Photography Awards (HIPA) in Dubai. the competition received 87,000 entries from 145 countries across six categories, with only 19 winners selected in total. i also had the good fortune of meeting some amazing photographers from every corner of the world. my winning photograph, titled ‘Ultimate Power’, is the Sun shot in the H-alpha wavelength, revealing its chromosphere with features such as solar prominences, sunspots, and filaments. the description accompanying the photograph read: “The Sun powers almost all the natural processes that keep our planet functioning. It is what makes the Earth habitable. Just one hour of sunlight contains enough energy to meet all of Earth’s electricity needs for an entire year. It is the ultimate source of energy - massive, continuous, and overwhelmingly powerful.”
