“When I see this image I’m instantly reminded of the work of Stephen Shore. I feel as though it reveals the isolation and atmosphere of middle America that he captured, even though it’s Brighton!”
- Jonny, Visual Lead Enterprise
“It’s hard to put into words why any photo is ‘the one’, but along with colour, composition and calibre, something off-kilter will always draw you in… an authentic imperfection.”
- Loren, Photo Editor
“A good photo does not mean a perfect photo. An image stands out to me when I see that the photographer is intentional about trying new techniques and allowing ‘mistakes’ to happen. The skill is your selection - navigating through 1,000s of photos and having the creative confidence to find the one that says the most.”
- Nicolas, Photo Review Lead
