Update #1 · Feb 13, 2012 · comment

Wow, it's been a great first week..and it's not over yet! Thanks again to everyone who has pledged to back my project. Dissolving Borders is getting some amazing press. It is currently being featured on DEVELOP Photo's YouTube channel DEVELOP Tube. From their site:

DEVELOP provides resources for the enrichment of the photojournalism, fine art and documentary photography community. Through our online research library, workshops and critical perspectives, we aim to further the growth of the individual and to facilitate connections within our field. DEVELOP is strengthened by the disparate backgrounds of its partners and contributors and by our collective commitment to nurturing the creative person.
