BCA Photo Group Show at NESOP

Theme: Untold Stories

Photographs tell a story, whether is it landscape, documentary, portrait. street or abstract. The story can be explicit or an enthralling visual experience which defies easy categorization. Sometimes, the more abstract evokes the viewer to construct their own personal narrative. The theme welcomes your interpretation and expression of an untold story.

Our display will include 15 photographs, eight horizontal and seven vertical. Please consider this when choosing images to submit.
