For the Love of DOGS by Stephen Albair
The intimate bond between human and canine forms the heart of Stephen Albair's latest series of tableau photographs that culminates into a new book titled DOGS, a collection of 28 photographs that bring man's best friend to life in imaginative, theatrical scenarios. Each image is a carefully crafted allegory composed of found objects meticulously arranged in confined spaces. These autobiographical visual narratives explore the fine line between what is real and what feels merely realistic.
Illuminations by Phil Lewenthal
Since 2018 and particularly during the pandemic I have spent much time walking the bluff trails at Sea Ranch, in northern California, and the nearby coast. While I’ve had a photographic practice for many years, I became fascinated with the movement of water among the ancient rocks offshore and the way the ocean foam can illuminate the spaces separating them, letting us see what cannot be seen.
We don’t look at sunsets anymore by Giannis Angelakis
Falassarna is a beautiful beach in the west of Chania, on the island of Crete. One of the reasons to go to Falassarna is for its sunset. The sun goes out like a fireball falling into the sea. For millions of years man has been experiencing these moments with a mystical bliss. In the last 15 years, for the first time in human history, this has changed. More and more people are not seeing the sunset; they are not experiencing the sunset. And when they do see it, they do so through an intermediary. The intermediary is a screen that acts as a machine for capturing moments that will be transformed into content that will feed user accounts on social media platforms. This photo was taken in Falassarna as the sun was setting. The photo shows five people. Two of them are watching their screens and are indifferent to the sight of the setting sun while the other three are involved in producing the content that they will then post to their social media accounts. They pose and gesture in front of the sunset, with the aim of producing material that will increase their chances of getting as many likes as possible.
FACE-OFF by André Bogaert
I’m a black & white street photographer from London and I take photos of strangers Street photographers like me usually look for faces when trying to tell a story in an image. I was intrigued by the idea of creating a collection of photographs that are in the street photography genre but the viewer is unable to see or cannot recognise the details of a face in any of the images. This absence of faces creates an air of mystery, encouraging the viewer to wonder about the subject’s story or feelings. Also without faces, the photo becomes a mirror for the viewer’s imagination, letting them create their own interpretation of the moment. So I went back and reviewed my work taken over the last year or so and selected images that were “face~OFF” photos.
(great) Expectations by Vicky Martin
(great) Expectations is a series of portrait and still life photographs that explore the notion of conforming to the societal expectations of femininity. Through the portrayal of those roles typically perceived as belonging to women, the series aims to explore the conflicts that arise between an individual’s desires and those stereotyped as the feminine ideal.

Pole Dancers by Mike Narciso
I’m a studio photographer that works mostly with people. I’m always looking for someone with a different point of view. I like pushing my subjects a bit. A while back, I met a gymnast who wanted to do a photo shoot dancing with a pole. I managed to put one together and asked if she wanted to stop by my studio and try it out. She thought it would work fine and excitedly wanted to setup a time to come back for a shoot. She came back a few days later and we went to work.
Stories in Stillness by Chris Panas
“Stories in Stillness” focuses on capturing a wide array of human experiences, expressions, and everyday moments. The images collectively form a set that celebrates the diversity and depth of individuals in various settings, both public and private. Each photo tells its own story in an introspective tone, suggesting themes of memory, longing and melancholy, with focus on emotion, detail, and character. Together, these images celebrate the beauty and complexity of human life. They explore themes of identity, connection, resilience, and everyday moments, each scene imbued with a sense of storytelling and emotional resonance. Captured here are not just people, but the atmospheres and settings that frame their lives, inviting viewers to find narratives and emotions within each frame.
Slipping through my Fingers by Elisabeth Sanders
"Slipping Through My Fingers" is a deeply personal exploration of parenthood. It's about the quiet fear that tugs at every parent: the realization that the time we have with our children is painfully short, that their childhood is an ever-fleeting season, and that I may not have savored enough of it while it was here.
