Winners & Finalists Street 2025

First place - Jet Budelman from The Netherlands

Nikos Economopoulos’s motivation for his choice: “This is a photo I really like. What stands out most for me is the abstraction that comes through in the entire image — it’s not clear exactly what it is. There are more questions than answers. This is what can be called photographic poetry.”

Second place - Eleonore Botton from France

Nikos Economopoulos’s motivation for his choice: ““With meaningful content and a strong visual composition, this photograph feels like a powerful journalistic story. It leaves a lasting impression after just one glance.”

Third place - Sharon Eilon from Israel

Nikos Economopoulos’s motivation for his choice: “This is a solid photograph. A descriptive image with a composition full of layers, where every element is perfectly placed. A photo made with a professional eye that tells the story in the best possible way. The photographer’s intention is to tell the story truthfully, without trying to go beyond the reality they depict.”
