Following the previous announcement of shortlist winners, the complete list of winning submissions for the Sony World Photography Awards 2015’s 173,444 entries has been released. The first, second and third best photos were chosen from three categories: Open, Professional and Youth, and are ranked by country.

The content and themes of the photo submissions span across a variety of subjects, such as breathtaking landscapes, magnificent architecture, unique perspective, and stunning portraits of people and exotic cultures.
