chosen from our Facebook Galleries and changed every Monday morning.

I liked a lot of photos this week, and I wanted to reward them all, but in the end I chose just this one by Geo Rge. It really is a perfect image for its narrative – it captures a reality that is disappearing – and it's perfectly composed.

Tina Manley & Wendy Fischer Hartman & Avi Nahum
Many photos that arrive in the Gallery deserve to be commented. This week I decided to reward three images that have the same narrative force, of totally different scenarios.
Tina is a born documentary filmmaker, and in this image, through a perfect composition, she communicates all the pain of the patient and the dedication of the doctor.
Wendy is a perfect streeter and this time she came across something different and presented it to us in a perfect way, helping us imagine the accident.
The image of Avi tells us about a little girl's journey, her dreams and her questions, in a poignant black and white.

Simon (old Etonion) has designed a rig for Obama (pony) to enable them to take people in wheelchairs "Offroad" to traverse the beaches and forests of Scotland.
An entirely free service.
Edd Carlile image is explained by the author himself. He managed to convey the feeling of his story in that image perfectly. The image is perfect in composition and black and white.
Probably this photo is not considered a street photo, but Progressive Street goes beyond the "pure street" and embraces documentary and even photojournalism.
The Gang's photographers don't go on "photographic safaris" for their travels, but report situations.
Every story should make you think.

Petros Kotzabasis & Aurelien Bomy
The two images I have chosen tell us about different ways of living.
The first shows the cleaning of houses in a poor and non-technological society, the second depicts a laundromat in a richer one.
In the first, right of frame, there is joy and the playful motion of water becomes symbolic. In the second we have the feeling of great solitude, among all those machines that are supposed to help us, for a fee.

This week I chose an image that tells perfectly of the isolation created by the smartphone and virtual reality. The world flows in the shadows next to the man bent over his small screen and only the advertisement next to him is otherwise illuminated, like the child in the foreground, like an innocent bystander.
The image underwent perfect postproduction.
