PICTURE IMPERFECT

The Sony World Photography Awards, the world’s biggest photography competition, have announced the shortlisted finalists for their Professional, Open and Youth categories for 2015. There's a mesmerising photo of synchronized swimmers in Singapore, an Indonesian man jumping through a ring of fire and what appears to be a headless dancer. Our firm favourite, however is the kid on an iPhone as a cat goes mad in the background - we've all been there.

The winners of ten Open and three Youth categories will be revealed on 31 March and the shortlisted photographers will have their images shown as part of the 2015 Sony World Photography Awards Exhibition in London’s historic Somerset House from 24 April – 10 May. Go here
