Great work by the winners of the LensCulture Street Photography Awards

Street photography, like the environment in general, has gained immense popularity in the last decade. What makes us take such a huge amount of photographs, wherever we are? Scroll your feeds on social networks and you will understand that in most of the pictures you see, the lens is directed to the outer space, and each frame becomes an attempt to capture the moment, mood and understand this world. Nowhere is this more pronounced than in street photography. Here the photographer can find some amazing order, highlight the structure, or simply sing the joyful chaos in the ever-growing cities of the world.

The other day, the prestigious publication LensCulture announced the finalists and winners of its Street Photography Awards photo contest to showcase the most interesting approaches in the street photography genre and to recognize the greatest talents.
