Landings

I have the opportunity to participate in the fourth annual virtual Landings exhibition from Falmouth Flexible that will take place Monday July 27th- Aug 3rd.  Including a launch with a 2 minute introduction on Instagram.  It was excited to wake up to this having been posted by the @falmouth_landings:





"The purpose of Landings:2020 is to have a base to widen and increase connectivity between photographers and the public globally so that we can exchange and communicate ideas, opinions and experiences"

I feel like this is a great match for my current project and I am excited to be part of it.

Reflections
