Hey all; sorry for the lack of contact. Stacy and I have been super busy and sadly IWOB has languished a bit. Just got this in my email and wanted to share it; IWOB will always be about supporting Doctors Without Borders, but also we support our photographers too! Cafe Art is a great site for getting information about upcoming shows and opportunities; be sure to join them.
