Photography+ Street #16 is out now!

This issue focuses on the urban environments that surround us and the communities that use them. Photography+ Street has been published to coincide with the launch of @picturinghighstreets, a digital mass participation project between Photoworks and @historicengland.

The street has historically been a site for studies of social life and photography has captured the lives and relationships of the communities that inhabit them.
