Members were invited to explore the diverse stories and emotions that make us human with this Photo Challenge theme of People. The guest selector Michelle Sank HonFRPS picked these images from hundreds of images submitted by members. “I chose these images for their ability to reveal something unknown in the “known” and to challenge viewers to explore them with a new personal narrative. This enhanced by the way the chosen photographic language concept worked together in each of these photographs.”
