Named Lens Culture Top 100 Street Photographers 2016
Announcing the Winners, Finalists, Jurors’ Picks & Top 100
Street photography captures the instant pulse of diverse people, urban cultures, traditions and communities all over the world — better than any other art form or language. While human nature may remain constant over the decades, fashions, trends, architecture, technology and the collision of urban visual clutter all seem to make our shared environments feel new, ever-changing and always bustling with life.
"These award-winning photographers may shock, delight, sadden or surprise you."
In the world of photography, there is a fear that we’ve already seen it all before, especially in a genre like street photography. But this year’s 34 winners, jurors’ picks and finalists clearly defy that sense of déjà vu — especially as we encouraged photographers to stretch and expand their interpretations of what can be captured out in the streets and intersections of the world. Their results ranged from street fashion and portraits, conceptual
investigations and pure poetry, to moments of daily life — both ordinary and extraordinary.

Entering The Metropolitan Opera wins First Place in The Soho Gallery National Competition
Soho Gallery's competition attracted over 1,750 images from around the country. Elizabeth Avedon, independent curator and writer, is the competition's juror. Paul Kessel was selected as the 1st place winner for the image, Entering The Metropolitan Opera.
Avedon said that from first glance, she was taken with the image's "Somber Beauty." She said, “It stayed with me like the atmosphere of a 70’s era Winogrand scene. The image has an indefinite quality to it.”
About the Soho Gallery National Competition:
Soho Photo Gallery initiated its first juried national photo competition in 1995 and it has been an annual event ever since. Each year, the Gallery receives hundreds of entries from photographers all over the United States. The Soho Photo National Photography Competition has no limits as to subject matter or technique.
