Milad Tower by Hesam Zareei

Captured during a school excursion to Tehran’s iconic Milad Tower, this photograph reflects a keen eye for architectural geometry. Taken in the crisp light of a fall morning, the image was thoughtfully processed into black and white to emphasize the structure's imposing form and clean lines. By carefully adjusting the framing of the original raw capture, the photographer successfully transformed a candid moment into a striking study of contrast and perspective. This work is award-worthy for its ability to elevate a common landmark into a timeless, monochromatic composition that highlights the interplay between light, shadow, and urban scale.
