EVERY WEEK ON OUR WEBSITE WE PUBLISH THE COVER OF OUR PAGE ON FB, CHOSEN BY KEEF CHARLES

In today's society, recognition and appreciation have become significant to many individuals. In our group and on our site, we recognize noteworthy accomplishments such as Photo of the Week, but we do not claim superiority. We proudly display your award-winning photos in our galleries and share them with you. Although we acknowledge our imperfections, we strive to provide you with the best possible experience using our intelligent features, magazines and books. Our ultimate goal is to help you appreciate your own photography as well as that of others, whilst also encouraging thought and contemplation.

**Barbara Craig.** You can interpret this scene in a couple of ways. Either the protagonist is reacting to the photographer or - taking in the wider story - he’s sharing his feelings about there being two burly policemen taking up the sidewalk. Either way it’s a poignant street portrait.

Barbara Craig. You can interpret this scene as either the protagonist reacting to the photographer or sharing feelings about two policemen on the sidewalk. Either way, it’s a poignant street portrait.

Thanos Kokkinis The scene features recycling bins and power cables, suggesting human presence. A dog walks slowly toward the viewer in a misty, rain-drenched background, creating a compelling image.

Nadia Eeckhout's window art is well-known, but this shot stands out with its mood and storytelling. It feels like a nostalgic look back, due to the dreamy, misty atmosphere she creates.

Sultan Koç - This is a strong mood capture, using great light. I think the little girl in this portrait would be having more fun at the fair.

Trevor Gwin – What may be just an ordinary moment has been transformed by the b/w editing into a powerful image and something extraordinary. This is a great catch, the emotional pull is strong.

Pascal Colin – The geometry and minimalism of this shot makes it feel other-worldly but not cold. The light offers hope in this beautiful composition.

Hans Severin -This is a pet cemetery with lost souls marked by crosses, but it could be more. The dead in the sand feels poignant—a powerful image.

Alex Lim – praises a photo for its striking red colour and skilful photography and editing, highlighting how the characters dressed in red stand out against the red background.

Trevor Gwin –The light and dynamics within this shot create a beautifully warm story.

Janusz Jurek This shot gives a whole new meaning to the phrase ‘crowd surfing’ and exemplifies - without being patronising - how much nicer the world is when people are caring and inclusive.

Bernhard Wasem –This image depicts summer but is unusual; the low mountains in Switzerland are in the background, and the lake’s water doesn’t tide. It’s calming.

Juancho Domínguez – Here’s a striking image of three siblings, with good light and strong black-and-white. The youngest, seeming a bit left out, is alert to the camera.

Anna Lisi - An image that is striking for its simplicity. The story may be unseen but the viewer is drawn into the frame by the immediacy of the shot.

Metin Yener - The main theme of the demonstration is more evident in those to the left of the girl, despite the focus being on her. A powerful message lies behind this layered image.

Mateo Candia – Vibrant colours and neutral hues draw you into this woman’s world. Sitting on her haunches, working with her potion, you can almost feel her concentration. A beautifully shot scene.

Adriana Dovha -There’s no reveal of the protagonist’s face, but you can almost imagine the person, constructing a story from the context and details. The light is exquisite.

John Gill - A lesson in how to make the ordinary look extraordinary, with balance, composition and powerful storytelling.

Ludovit Graus - This is a powerful image, a classic scene of poverty and deprivation. Unfortunately it’s not part of a series shot decades ago, it’s today’s reality in Cuba.

Ubo Pakes – Hard work is transformed into a beautiful picture, enhanced by the skillful use of light and colour by Ubo Pakes.

Erik Corduwener – It’s a quirky shot. With the jaunty rider dressed in orange popping out from the teal blue background it has a feelgood factor.
