20 best works from the LensCulture 2018 Street Photography Contest

Categories: Travel |

The international jury of the LensCulture Street Photography Awards photo contest has selected the winners of 2018. This time, contestants from 170 countries sent their works to LensCulture magazine. This is a record number compared to the past years, and it is not surprising — the last decade has been marked by an explosion in the popularity of street photography.

The organizers of the photo contest tried to select among the best those shots that reflect the most interesting approach to modern street photography. The judges announced 39 finalists, winners in the categories "Photo Series" and "Single Image", and also noted some works as "jury's choice". Winners and prize-winners in the categories "One photo" and "Series" will receive awards from one to five thousand dollars. Eight more authors were awarded special prizes of one thousand dollars.

We invite you to get acquainted with the twenty best works of the competition, which can be called masterpieces of the genre of street photography.
