Street Photography 3rd place winner

‘Lost Within The Light is an ode to London during these
confusing and often frenetic times guiding the viewer
through both it’s traditional landmarks and their alternative
equivalent - from the Bank of England toThe Mighty Pound shop, Downing Street to a public Tank, a squat
rave, The Hardy Tree, a Gorilla race, privately-owned
‘public spaces’, X-Factor to an Arms Fair, big business,
dark web, doomed construction, post-Brexit, pre-recession and the often
un-celebrated - people, community, the everyday struggle
and rejoicing’
