About Street Photography Gallery

SPG World (Street Photography Gallery) a major international award gallery was established in 2023 as the top curators of several exclusive and private photography communities on the social web felt the need to extend the movement to the open web. SPG’s current set of team comes from a span of 4 countries and the contests on SPG are open to everyone without the hassle of a login window.

 

Abhishek Deb (India), the news-media entrepreneur and a defence veteran, brought together a strong global panel of astounding Street Photographers in Victor Shohet (United Kingdoms), Kevin Unger (Israel), Goutam Maiti (India) who joined the panel, to be the core set of Juries & Ambassadors for the Street Photography Gallery. Lil Steinberg, Puspita Choudhury, Sey Rosen, Talya Amati Lewis and Anwar Ehtesham also have been a core part of the administration team in the interim period.

The administration team is adding some fresh talent soon into the foray.

SPG puts fair importance in the voting system across 3 stages now, thanks to which we are able to process a huge number of uploads. For the 1st two stages, the judges do not get to know the photographers’ identity making the selection process as neutral and unbiased as that can be. After the voting identifies the finalists, the result is presented in front of the Jury panel where they make the final call about the eventual winners. We are constantly pursuant towards improving the assessment process more objective and effective.

The Street Photography Gallery also known as SPG World, currently has the following activities: Daily Black & White Photo feature and Daily Colour photo feature on the IG and FB handles and the Weekly Photo Feature that covers 3 photographers every weekend; The Annual Thematic Contest that runs through the year and ends with Media announcements and a physical offline exhibition every year as the part of the SPG Awards, in a select city. These activities also find a parallel hood where select street photographers apply for an Interview feature to be etched permanently on the digital gallery of SPG where netizens looking for best street photography work on internet, can find theirs.

SPG is in pursuit of finding the best photographs every calendar year across different subsets of street photography and if you own one of them, we applaud you for keeping the community strong.
