Street photography through an Australian lens – in pictures

From a sleepy restaurant to a climbing leopard, the Australian Street Photography awards celebrate the best contemporary street photos taken by Australians. Twenty-five finalists have been selected by an independent jury through Aussie Street, a platform for photographers.
The pictures celebrate ordinary public life through images of observation, chance, humour, tension, ambiguity and human connection. The exhibition is running in Sydney from November
