Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2024 Worldwide Photo Walk! We hope that everyone had a great time, made some new friends, and took some amazing photographs!
Once again, there were so many great images this year that you could make a case for that “should have been the one,” and the photographers themselves keep improving year after year. It all makes the judging process even harder. Narrowing it down to just ten finalists and one winner from entries literally all over the world is very challenging. Especially since there are so many things to consider when looking at an image.
I’m delighted to present to you this year’s ten finalists and our 2024 Worldwide Photo Walk Grand Prize winner (Note: these were announced live on the air during last week’s episode of The Grid.

Thanks to all our Photo Walk Leaders
It’s an awful lot of work to lead a Photo Walk (ask anyone who has led one), and a thankless job, so let me be the first to say “thanks.” We couldn’t do any of this without our volunteer walk leaders around the world, who do such a great job of creating the walks; working and wrangling their walkers, judging the local contest from their walk, and making the whole thing happen on the local level, and that means a lot.
We’d also like to congratulate to the Leader winner:
LEADER WINNER | Mustafa Shorbaji
Also, a big thanks to all the talented photographers around the world…
…who created such inspiring, creative, and beautiful work, and special thanks to those of you who contributed to the Springs of Hope Orphanage in Kenya — it means more than you know. This wasn’t JUST a photo walk—this was a photo walk with a cause! Our annual event proudly supports The Springs Of Hope Kenya Orphanage, an organization that feeds, houses, educates, and empowers young orphans so that they can grow up to not just survive but succeed. If you have it in your heart to donate, please visit this link.
You can also view our winners in a gallery hosted by SlickPic. I’m already looking forward to next year’s event!
