“Photo” by Sergey Kozlov

Autumn has a way of slowing life down, sharpening the air, and deepening the colors around us.

The winning photographs from the 35 Photo Awards’ “Landscape: Beauty of Autumn” category capture this quiet magic with remarkable clarity. Each image embodies the essence of fall, from blazing forests to mist‑covered mountain paths, telling stories of change and serenity. Photographers from around the world contributed scenes filled with golden leaves, reflective lakes, and winding roads disappearing into fiery woods. Together, these award‑winning works reveal the emotional richness of the season and invite viewers to step into autumn’s gentle, transformative beauty.
