Billed as the world's greatest photo game, GuruShots is an online platform that provides a fun, structured way to showcase your images while gaining global exposure for your work.
By competing in epic challenges against millions of photographers, you can get instant feedback from over three billion monthly votes and increase your ranking from Newbie to achieve the ultimate status (and bragging rights) of Guru.
Challenges are voted on by the platform's Gurus and the wider community, and there’s a fresh challenge every day. Winners can receive prizes from GuruShots' sponsors such as Adorama, Kodak, Lowepro and Lensbaby.
The 'Beautiful Mountains' challenge was all about people in the city, from urban landscapes filled with workers, lovers, partygoers, and everything in between – with a welcome focus on creativity, composition and candid shots! The winners, and a selection of commended images, were published in Photography Week, and we're pleased to share the top 102 photographs here.
