Here are the 20 stunning winning photos of the LensCulture black & white photography awards 2022. Each of these photographers and artists has given us remarkable work to appreciate — images, stories and ideas that resonate particularly well because they are rendered in black and white.
These photographers come from 18 countries on 5 continents. In addition to the variety of cultures represented here, there is also quite a range of creative approaches and topics among this year’s winners and finalists.
