The Photographers' Gallery - What haunts you?

This is an oldie but I still like it. Glad I participated.

The Photographers' Gallery, London collected nearly 4000 images by over 350 photographers in 2007 under the theme of What haunts you?

Artist Helen Marshall chose one photograph from all those sent in. With it she produced an interactive photo collage composed of 2500 of the images submitted. Click here to view the artwork:
