Fine Art nominee

One day in January, I was walking through the streets of my hometown of Hamburg. A fine mist spread and enveloped the city in absorbent cotton. Everything slowed down. A wonderful atmosphere for taking long exposures.

Mona Moraht, born in Hamburg, started photographing already at school using her father’s medium format camera. She bought her first SLR camera in 1998 – still analogue at the time. Meanwhile, the Canon 5D Mark IV is her permanent companion. Since 2016, photography of abandoned places takes her all across Europe. Furthermore, architecture, landscape, and nature photography are her preferred domains. Several of her works have won awards at national and international competitions (see the following link: https://mona-moraht-photography.de/awards). Moraht is a member of the German Photographic Association (DVF) (https://www.dvf-fotografie.de), the International Federation of Photographic Art (FIAP), Luxembourg (https://www.fiap.net) and the Photographic Society of America (PSA), USA (https://psa-photo.org). She has been awarded the „EFIAP/s“ of the FIAP and the „PPSA“ of the PSA. Moraht lives and works in Berlin.
