Beautiful Landscape Winning Photos from the 2025 Minimalist Photography Awards
1st Place Winner: “Art of Winter” by Martin Rak

The 2025 Minimalist Photography Awards Landscape winners prove that in a noisy world, simplicity can strike the deepest chord.
These photographs rely on quiet power rather than spectacle, reducing scenes to pure elements of space, light, and emotion. Martin Rak claimed 1st Place with Art of Winter, a serene Czech landscape capturing the hush of the season’s first snowfall, while Kalle Saarikko’s 2nd Place Whirl and Alexandre Brisson’s 3rd Place infrared Dreamscape of Etosha showed how abstraction and surreal color can reshape our sense of place. Across all 30 winning images, each photographer demonstrates that minimalism isn’t about absence but intention. Together, the collection invites viewers to pause, breathe, and experience the profound meaning found in stillness.
