“Photography is not about cameras, gadgets and gizmos. Photography is about photographers. A camera didn’t make a great picture any more than a typewriter wrote a great novel.” – Peter Adams
Another year, another great set of images taken by a collective of photographers from far and wide – each with their own style and subject matter. There are some stunning shots here, reflecting different moments and events from 2024. As always, these are in no particular order – sit back and enjoy…
