Public asked to choose between 16 shortlisted entries spanning the globe
Voting has opened in the CIOB’s annual Art of ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø contest to crown the best photograph of the built environment.
Shortlisted entries for 2016 span the globe, taking in a part-demolished Buddhist settlement in Tibet to a spectacularly colourful Moorish temple in Italy, via a distorted photo of London’s Gherkin tower.
Saul Townsend, CIOB spokesperson, said: “There is a cornucopia of styles and stories in this year’s final.
“In a world full of high definition colour technology black and white photography still inspires a host of photographers.
“Voters are in for a visual treat and we hope will be inspired to look at the built environment in a new way and to take part themselves next year. Congratulations to all the finalists. “
The photograph with the most votes will earn the title of ‘Art of ºÚ¶´ÉçÇø Photographer of the Year’ and a cash prize of £3,500.
Voting closes on 23 January 2017 and a winner will be announced on 7 February. To vote for your favourite, visit .
