The images selected interpret this theme in both traditional and unconventional ways that show you joy is alive and well in the world, despite what the news may tell you.

“Analog Forever’s call for entry sparked something in me, “ says CB Adams, a St. Louis-based writer and fine art photographer. “I was just scrolling through social media when I saw this call for the theme of ‘joy’ and I immediately stopped and thought, ‘I could submit to that!’ I had more than twenty images that I thought fit the theme. You could submit only two, so I finally chose one image made with a Holga toy cameras and one made with a Toyo 45CF large format camera, which is the one Ms. Kelley ultimately chose.”

Analog Forever’s mission is to “…provide a global audience to photographers who use analog processes and techniques for their photographic work by giving them a voice via a biannual print photography journal, online features and interviews, monthly online exhibitions, and a community calendar. Our goal is to highlight the best of the best from the analog industry including artists, projects, galleries, and curators.”
