#HoodsHarbour

by Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons

This album contains photographs from the Samuel J Hood collection which appeared in the exhibition #HoodsHarbour (26 February-9 June 2014).

#HoodsHarbour pays homage to the work of a group of individuals we call our Flickr ‘super sleuths’. Drawn from the most popular Hood photographs on the museum's Flickr Commons photostream, this exhibition was a first for the museum - it was chosen by and for the people.
