Portrait of Humanity 2019 Shortlist Honour for Phil Melia

May 13, 2019

“Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that your image has been selected as one of the 200 shortlisted images for Portrait of Humanity. Your shortlisted image will be featured in the Portrait of Humanity book, published by Hoxton Mini Press and distributed worldwide.” Melanie Phillippe - Awards Director

I’m really pleased and proud to have been shortlisted for the 2019 Portrait of Humanity Awards for my image ‘The Quaker’, taken last year in Manchester. To be part of an amazing initiative that celebrates shared values of individuality, community and unity, especially in the current world climate, is an honour that inspires me to seek out more visual storytelling and to continue bearing witness to the world we live in.

Portrait of Humanity is a new global initiative by 1854 Media, publisher of the British Journal of Photography, in partnership with Magnum Photos.

After 36 years, it’s a fond farewell to Greater Manchester and a big hello to Hornsea on the East coast of Yorkshire. An exciting new life beckons where I will be mostly enjoying walk
Brünnhilde is singing and Elvis has left the building! After 36 years, it’s a fond farewell to Greater Manchester and a big hello to Hornsea on the East coast of Yorkshire. An exciting new life beckons where I will be mostly enjoying walks on the beach plus walks in the park with my wife and dog. I’ll also spend time having afternoon tea in the local cafe’s, and working on personal photography projects. Apologies if I didn’t get chance to you before I left but please look me up if you’re in the area and say hello. #beachlife #adventure #Hornsea #Leica
