#31: Offline Journal Newsletter : April '22
New Offline Journal issue #008 available now
I’m pleased to say issue #008 of Offline Journal is with the printers and orders will begin shipping this weekend.
The FACE VALUE issue takes a look at a variety of portrait projects from around Wales.
My thanks to Mark Moran for the great cover shot. More of his work - and his story - is featured over four pages of the new issue. There are also four more features on photographers making work in North Wales, as well as several more articles from around Wales.
The 40 pages are packed with great images and writing.
You can view the contents listing for this new issue and order your copy from the limited print run over on www.offline.wales now!
