ALEX STREET PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS FIRST EDITION: the winners
I am pleased to announce that the first edition of the ALEX STREET PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS ended with good participation. But I want more already from the second.
To discover the winners that will be contacted soon check out the page of the award.
ALEX STREET PHOTOGRAPHY - SELECTION 2026
This is not an award.
There is no jury.
There is no voting process.
There is no compromise.
This is a personal selection.
Every image will be seen and judged by me alone. I take full responsibility for every choice. No filters, no committees, no safe decisions. Just my eye, my experience, and my understanding of street photography after more than 15 years working in the field as a photographer, editor, and educator.
Most submissions will fail.
That’s the point.
WHAT THIS IS
This is not about celebrating participation.
This is about identifying photographs that hold weight.
Not just well-composed images.
Not just “good moments”.
I am looking for photographs that stay.
Images with tension, ambiguity, presence.
If your work relies on aesthetics alone, it will not pass.
SUBMISSION
ONE IMAGE ONLY
No series.
No multiple entries.
No second chances.
If you don’t know which is your strongest photograph, you’re not ready.
ENTRY FEE
5 USD
Not to make money.
To create a filter.
Submitting should cost you something, even if minimal.
Because choosing one image should matter.

1920 px wide, 72 dpi
SELECTION PROCESS
No shortlist.

WHAT YOU GET

Only context. Only meaning.
