We are delighted to showcase selected images from shortlisted photographers for the 2021 Student competition. The photographers – aged between 18 to 30 years-old – are all enrolled in leading higher education institutions. Below are some of the photographers' images interpreting the brief ‘Building a Better Future’, where we asked to see a story connected to those making a positive difference to change our world. These photographers were then asked to work on the second brief ‘Our Time’. The Student Photographer of the Year will be announced on 15 April, 2021.
