Open, Youth & Mobile Phone winners: 2015 Sony World Photography Awards

World Photography Organisation (WPO) has announced today the Open, Youth and Mobile Phone winners for 2015 Sony World Photography Awards. The winners, featured below, were selected from 96,000 entries around the world, with a total of 183,737 images. The achievement of these 16 photographers is quite extraordinary, considering this is the world’s biggest photographic competition and most of them are not professional. On top of that, the youngest winner, Stephanie Anjois of the UK, is only 14 years old.

Please scroll down and enjoy these winning images, which will be exhibited at Somerset House, London on April 24  to May 10.
