These stunning images are just a few of the finalists from an international photography competition searching for pictures that showed “what work means” to people around the world.
More than 9,000 images were entered into the worldwide #Work2020 competition hosted by the free-to-use photography app Agora.
After Agora users were asked to vote on the best photo, the picture “Washing Water Lilies” was selected as the winner.
The photo was taken by 34-year-old Vietnamese photographer and bank worker Khanh Phan, who bought her first camera in 2017 and taught herself to use it during her travels all over the country.
Another striking finalist captured by Liam Man shows a construction worker taking a break in an unused section of the London underground.
“Much narrower than the main tube tunnels, this line was used to transport the city’s mail,” said the photographer. “In 2017, it was turned into a museum, and I was given early access to the tunnels before they opened to tours.”
