Random photo of the day: Photos Tell Stories Gambian students ‘Home’ photography assignment

As part of the ‘Photos Tell Stories’ 4-day photography workshop, in The Gambia, our young  students  were given an assignment: ‘Home‘.

During the workshop, photographer and tutor, Jason Florio, showed ‘Home‘ work from our contributing international photographers – such as Ben Lowy, Amy Toensing, Wayne Lawrence, Manjari Sharma, and Heloise Bergman – we then asked our students to take the cameras and photograph what means ‘Home‘ to them.
