In mid-June, Nokia put out a call for entries in its low light photo competition. Partnering with Talenthouse, an online creative collaboration network, and Dazed and Confused magazine, entrants were asked to submit their best urban/street style low light images captured with a camera or other photographic device.
Fifty favorites were selected by Nokia, Dazed and Confused and London-based photographer Tyrone Lebon. Each finalist was provided with a trial Lumia 925 smartphone (which has a maximum ISO of 3200) with which to shoot additional low light, urban-style images over a period of two weeks. Nokia and Dazed and Confused then selected three winners from the second round of submissions and awarded them with an all-expenses paid VIP trip to the Burton High Fives (a snowboarding invitational in New Zealand) and publication of their images in Dazed and Confused.
Visit the Nokia conversations blog to learn more about the winners, see photos from other finalists and get some tips on shooting in low light. Meanwhile, here are more images captured by the contest winners.

The Panasonic Lumix DC-G100 (G110 in some regions) is a mirrorless camera designed for vlogging. Its 20MP Four Thirds sensor is paired with clever tracking audio technology, but we have our reservations.
The Olympus PEN E-PL10 is the latest in the company's entry-level mirrorless line-up. It's a beginner-friendly camera that does many things well, but ultimately doesn't stand out amongst its competition.
The Nikon Coolpix P950 is a powerful superzoom compact camera, built around a 24-2000mm equivalent zoom lens. Successor to the popular P900, the P950 adds an improved EVF, Raw capture and 4K video. So is it worth $800?
The Fujifilm X-T4 brings image stabilization, faster shooting and a bigger battery to the X-T series. It's not without its shortcomings but we found it to be an excellent stills and video shooter.
With its unusual form factor can the Tourbox aid the editing process? Will its price and variety of tactile controls appeal to photo and video editors who would like to streamline their workflow?
