Shh...Silent Show

Gold Member Sarah Boser (Sara9) has introduced the concept of the 'Silent Show' to Nikonians.

"I recently had a conversation with an accomplished photographer about how he puts together an exhibit with a museum curator. He talked about how his process is based solely on visual impact and the emotional response, minus a linguistic component/ discussion of the images."

Join Sara in the A Picture I Took Forum to learn more and add your images to the Silent Show.
