We Asked Photographers From All Over The World To Share Their 'Red' Photos, Here Are The 50 Best Entries

Take a walk on AGORA's #Red2019 carpet and discover the 50 finalists who are competing to win the $1000 prize! Who will you cast your vote to?

Colors can have a huge impact on our emotions, our perceptions, but also our spiritual and physical well being. The red color has many symbolisms depending on which corner of the planet you've been brought up: in China, India and many other Asian countries, red is the color of happiness and good fortune while Europe and United States will associate the color with passion, sexuality or even anger.

These 50 photographers have shared their unique point of view about the red color, and have been selected among more than 16,711 submissions in the #Red2019 Photo Contest by AGORA images, the free-to-use photography app that has been rewarding the world's biggest prizes in global photo contests since 2017.

The AGORA Community can now vote for their favorite photo in the app, and help the guest judge decide who will be the #Red2019 Hero who will win the prize of $1,000. Winner will be announced on Thursday 10th october 2019.
