About Coupling up
50 photos from the 'Coupling up' group will be selected to be part of a permanent display in the 'Who am I?' gallery at the Science Museum.
The 50 images will also be used to create a limited edition photo book for the 50 finalists.
Attraction is very hard to pin down with scientific explanation alone so, when submitting the photo, you’re welcome to accompany the picture with a comment and tell us... What made you click? Comments are optional.
About the Who Am I? gallery
Who Am I? is all about your favourite subject: you! What makes you you? How do your genes impact on your brain, or how you act, think and look?
The gallery examines how modern science is transforming our understanding of what it means to be human. The new Who am I? gallery opens in June 2010.
An area of the Gallery will be dedicated to Sex, Gender, Attraction & Sexuality. To illustrate the ‘science of attraction’ 50 images of diverse couples will be displayed, and one of those could be yours!
More about the ‘Coupling up’ group project
The ‘Coupling up’ Flickr group is part of the 'Who am I?' gallery project and is organised by the Science Museum, London.
Images should be as shot rather than manipulated. No nudity or explicit images will be accepted.
By adding your photo to this group, you are giving the Science Museum permission to display your photo in the ‘Who am I?’ group, (if selected) in the 'Who am I?' gallery and on the Science Museum website.
All photos will be credited and displayed with a link back to the original photo/submitter’s screen name on www.flickr.com where it is reasonably practicable for us to do so.
Entry closes on 18 April 2010. Judges decision is final.
Images are moderated, so everything in the pool fits the description.
