To celebrate the array of photographs submitted to this year’s Sony World Photography Awards, we’re publishing a collection of images each week up until the opening of the 2019 Sony World Photography Awards Exhibition on April 18. Each collection will be chosen by a theme from the revealed shortlists. Last week we selected the best aerial pictures, this week we look at 11 images full of vivid colour.
