This year the EyeEm community received a record number of entries to its annual photography competition, with over 590,000 submissions received from more than 88,000 photographers all over the world.
Somehow the judging panel, which was made up of representatives from National Geographic, VII Photo Agency, Refinery29, BBC and more, have worked their way through the more than half a million entries to give us a list of the top 100 photos that have made it through to the final.
