 Some of the images the house has highlighted include one by Londoner Eddie Wrey, who snapped a striking black and white photo of bees in England’s Berkshire. Meanwhile, Luis Alberto Rodriguez offered a portrait of delicate purple flowers, taken in Berlin.

Additionally, another Londoner, Adama Jalloh, and Alice Schillaci, who lies in Milan, chose to zoom in on landscapes featuring flourishing greenery or sun-bathed fields. Another shot comes from South Korean Hanna Moon, who opted for a peaceful moment while looking up into a wood in Seoul.
