Streets Ahead – Challenge 1 – Showcase
Welcome to the showcase for our first challenge, ‘Crouching’ (photographing street scenes/life from a crouching position). We hope that this will be the first of many challenges that will be run in the Streets Ahead group.

And believe me when I say that this was an incredibly difficult showcase to curate… because the quality of images that are submitted to he Flickr Group are absolutely gorgeous.,, and very inspiring! If you are not a member of our Facebook…

Mobile Photography – Streets Ahead Interview With Allie Astell
This week, the Women’s Mobile Street Photography Collective (Streets Ahead) is pleased and honored to feature Allie Astell in our interview section.

She did one set of photographs of Dahab and the other of Morocco and I thought that she had a fantastic eye. I have been following her work ever since. And for this interview, we decided to feature photographs from her life in the middle east, where she is based for most of the year. Her ‘streets’ are often the beach and the dessert, and although this may not…
