Forum members David Aimone, myself (Jason Philbrook) and three other photographers have teamed up to exhibit and elevate photography on Monhegan Island Maine. It's a VERY famous place in American art and art history and comparatively obscure in photography. If my normal every day woods or Acadia NP is a 8-10 on the scale of beauty and wildness, this place is 11.

Help fund it here: (Funding is largely for re-usable frames and a catalog)
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/monhegan-island-photo-festival-inaugural#/

I am one of the five photographers with six images each. One is large format soft focus, the rest are with my Rolleiflex.

Thanks in advance for checking it out online, even if visiting Monhegan Island is out of the question!

I'm going to move this to our fundraising campaign section. Of course, if the campaign succeeds and you go ahead with the event, a post in "Announcements" would be welcome.

Good luck!

If you've ever photographed on Monhegan Island or wanted to, please support our fundraiser which indeed supports the island itself, which is both a fragile natural and human ecosystem. We're not asking for a lot of money or large contributions, anything that you can manage is very appreciated.

In the meantime, here are some of my LF images of the island from over the years:

We have a few photographers from this forum showing their works this year, and one who has generously contributed.

More help is needed. Please visit the IGG site and consider a pledge to help make this happen!
