Streets Ahead – Challenge 8 – Selfies On The Street – Deadline – 30th November 2014

ONE entry only – 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 image…

Streets Ahead Interview: Heline Lam – Mobile Street Photography
This week, the Women’s Street Photography Collective (Streets Ahead) is pleased and honoured to feature Heline Lam in our interview segment. Heline’s street photography shows her ability to hone in on moments around her, capturing the essence of whatever city she happens to be in. Her surreal images are different sides to her body of work. They combine her love of architecture and geometry with the human element that she captures on the street. You can see some of her work here: http://www.thephoblographer.com/2014/07/15/surreal-world-heline-lam/#.VCB-h7EazCR Heline’s work has been featured in The App Whisperer’s Flickr group showcase as well as the Streets Ahead column, Mobiography, Art of Mob, EyeEm, The Phoblographer and…

Streets Ahead – 30 Under 30: Women Photographers
Fabulous images and article from LensCulture highlighting Paris-based Photo Boite – now in its fifth year. “Photo Boite has featured 30 women photographers each year who are making work today that deserves worldwide attention. What is it like, then, to be a female photographer, to be a woman who has seized hold of an instrument of which she traditionally remains in front, and to use her eye to view the world, rather than use it to throw back a soft, muted glance into the receiving end of a male gaze? It may sound primitive to talk of the female photographer in such a way, but as the photographers of Photo…
