Humble Arts Foundation presents an open call for photography about the sun and the moon
As the world seems to increasingly divide, it often feels as if hope and optimism are in vain. The sun and the moon can be symbols of universality despite division, illuminating the skies above us all. For our final open call of 2021, (with a slight homage to one of our heroes, Penelope Umbrico), we want to see your photos of and about the sun and/or the moon. These can be straightforward, manipulated, alt-process – anything and everything photography-based.
