EISA Maestro UK


We take a look at the winner of the UK EISA Maestro competition for 2019


The theme of the 2019 EISA Maestro
competition was ‘Power’. The winning
entries from each of the 16 participating
EISA countries were judged together at
the association’s General Meeting in

June and the final results will be
revealed at the EISA Awards Gala in
September. The overall winner will take
home a cash prize of €1,500 and the
EISA Photo Maestro 2019 trophy.

The overall winner from the UK, as
selected by the AP team, is Steve Field
and we see his work here. The two
runners-up portfolios will be featured
in the forthcoming issues of AP.

EISA Maestro competition winners


Steve Field, Stoke Gifford, South Gloucestershire
‘I shoot an eclectic range of subjects – everything from sport
and wildlife to macro and travel. I’m a member of the Bristol
Photographic Society (BPS) and never fail to be inspired
by both the visiting speakers and my fellow photographers.
Without their encouragement and guidance, I’d still be
a ‘snapper’. I particularly love black & white photography, and started off doing
my own developing and printing in my twenties. This project was always going
to be black & white to portray not just the shapes and chalk, but also the power
these girls possess in order to carry out the moves with such ease and grace.’
