SHOPPING

But, I believe in a future that allows me to grow most of my food.  Ah, to sleep, perchance to dream.  This next Call wants to know how it happens in your dreams.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
This May Have Happened

The power of photography as document or proof is well-demonstrated. Photographic images are often crafted to exist alone, as singular facts.

At the same time, the narrative possibilities of still photography develop from the power of suggestion, the potential of the open-ended scene, the unresolved thrill of the cliff-hanger.  The stories that these images suggest may or may not be factual, but their power comes from allowing the audience to bring its own sense of plot and tension to the work.  We are looking as much for questions as we are for answers.

Think noir.  Think sweeping epic.  Think fairy tale.  Think cause and effect. Think characters.
