What is URBAN 2015? It is an international photography competition now in its fourth edition. It’s focus is “daily life in the city captured in street photography: instant images, capable of telling a story woven into the urban fabric.”
URBAN looks for talent and quality images from both professional and amateur street photographers, offering up the international stage they need to get noticed.
