Group Description
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!
