Streets Ahead – Women’s Mobile Street Photography – New Challenge – ‘Arjan’

We are proud to announce a new Challenge to our Women’s Mobile Street Photography Collective – Streets Ahead.  The details are below and the selected images will be portrayed in a showcase later in the month, for an example of that, please see here.

CHALLENGE 12: Arjan

Deadline 13 March 2016

We felt it was time for a new challenge and as many of you will be aware, we very sadly lost an incredible mobile street photographer just a few weeks ago. Arjan van der Horst was an incredible person and used the app Hipstamatic a great deal, so much so, that following his death, the developers created a unique Arjan film in his honour. Our Challenge this month, is for you to use the Arjan film to capture images, in ways that we knew he would.

The Arjan film is free, just head over to your shopping basket, within the HIpstamatic app and you will see it there.

A recap of the rules and procedure for entry:

1. Maximum of three entries per person – please do not upload any other images to this group as it has been created specifically for the challenge only. The admins will delete images that are not relevant.

2. Upload your images to the group on flickr that has been created specifically for the challenge entries.

4. Photos from a mobile device only please.

5. As this group is to highlight women photographers, we will only accept work shot by women.
