Finding order in the chaos of a city

3 weeks ago

Street photography is all about finding order in the chaos of a city. One of the most popular genres of photography, it often features comical juxtapositions and serendipitous moments, lines leading the viewer's eye to perfectly placed strangers and abstract scenes saturated with colour reminiscent of Saul Leiter's work.

In our latest Entries of the Week, we've selected ten captivating photographs that play with composition, vividly convey the atmosphere of the moment, and capture the dynamic energy of vibrant street life.
