Our universe may be ever expanding but these moving portraits from all over this small planet remind us that what holds us together is stronger than any forces that seek to pull us apart. The fifth edition of this popular volume features 200 new portraits from international photographers, selected from thousands of entries in the British Journal of Photography’s annual competition. The publication supports a world-touring exhibition organized by 1854 Media, bringing global exposure to the book. Images are accompanied by a personal story from the photographer – providing a window into the lives of their subjects and celebrating the shared humanity that connects us all.
