Street photography is an ever popular subject which captures the daily activates of the streets which we journey along. In this months competition we are looking for images with strong clear narratives, so images of people engrossed in an activity is encouraged.

As with all competitions remember that good camera craft skills with accuracy of exposure is essential, good lighting is also beneficial, along with decisive cropping and excellent postproduction skills.

Entries are invited that capture people and places from around the world. The images may depict everything from street musicians, street performers and people in everyday life situations. The images should give a feeling of presence and place, and should tell a story.
