  "account": "Bangladeshi photographer Pinu Rahman has been awarded the top prize at the world's most lucrative photography competition – the Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum International Photography Award (HIPA). His winning image, titled \"Under the Same Sky,\" depicts a family of five seeking shelter within the remaining concrete walls of their burnt-out home in Dhaka, Bangladesh, following a fire in November 2025 that destroyed about 1,500 dwellings.\n\nThe 15th edition of HIPA was centered around the theme of \"Family,\" in line with the directives set by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the UAE, who declared 2026 as the Year of the Family. This initiative aims to strengthen family bonds, enhance social stability, and instill authentic Emirati values in future generations.\n\nRahman's photograph resonated deeply with the HIPA jury, who decided it best exemplified the theme. The competition's prize pot totals an astounding US$1 million, with Rahman walking away with the grand prize of US$200,000. Captured using a DJI Mavic 3 Pro camera drone, the winning image showcases the family's resilience and the human capacity to endure in the face of adversity.",
