Carl Zeiss announces Digital Culture results

Israeli photographer Netanel Hadad has won the Carl Zeiss photo contest on ‘digital culture’ for his work entitled “The digital blind date”. A man and woman are seated across from each other at a table with a glass of wine, looking at one another in the candlelight. They talk, talk, talk. It’s their first date - they haven’t met before.

Is this a normal blind date? Almost. There are just two laptops on the table. The couple is meeting virtually. They are both ‘hiding’ behind their computer screens. “The picture won because it deals with a tough topic beautifully and creatively. There’s great atmosphere in this image,” says photographer Edith Held from Berlin, who assessed the contest entries. “The photographer plays with the details and thus renders the story into the image perfectly. I really like the idea behind it.”
