Portrait of a Cotton Candy Seller Wins Food Photographer of the Year
The winners of the Pink Lady® Food Photographer of the Year 2023 have been announced with a striking portrait of a cotton candy seller taking home over $6,000.
The Candy Man by John Enoch taken in Mumbai, India beat off the competition to be crowned the overall winner.
“I’m ecstatic to receive this award, it’s a real honor to get this recognition in such a prestigious competition laden with wonderful imagery,” says Enoch.
“The winning image was part of a personal project — a huge amount of time and thought went into capturing it so it’s great to be recognized by such an esteemed panel of judges.
“Ever since I first saw the candy floss sellers I was drawn to the shapes, colors, and juxtaposition of the candy and the urban environment.”
