In the 35th edition of AAP Magazine, we sought to exalt the vivid spectrum of colors. Ultimately, we selected twenty-five photographers, with a majority being women, hailing from nine distinct countries across three continents. Their choice of colors spans the gamut, encompassing audacious and lively hues, subtle pastels, and even monochromatic tones. Yet, each selection reflects a deliberate aesthetic decision that enhances the photograph's visual allure and evokes sensory delight..
