Santa Fe Photographic Workshops BACKYARD Photo Contest
Be Honored by Leaders in the Photographic Community … And Win the Workshop of Your Choice! Your backyard. It may be the quintessential green grass and sprinklers. Or it may be the city streets, the water’s edge, or rolling fields. Whatever your backyard looks like it is a familiar place, and yet it is rich with discoveries and stories. The Santa Fe Photographic Workshops BACKYARD Photo Contest is your opportunity to share your impressions of your little corner of the world, in color or in black-and-white, using tools that range from digital and film cameras to alternative processes, to iPhones.
Join our international community of photographers and share your images with our distinguished judges. The prizes are terrific, the 50 winning images are featured in The Workshops online gallery, and the four winning images will be printed on the Epson printers in our state-of-the art digital lab and displayed in our on-campus Epson Gallery.
All entries will be anonymously reviewed throughout the Contest. Images will be judged on originality, technical excellence, composition, overall impact and artistic merit.
Judging and winning entries will be selected by:
Jennifer Schlesinger Hanson, Director, VERVE Gallery of Photography
Jonathan Blaustein, Writer, New York Times Lens blog and A Photo Editor blog
Arthur Meyerson, Photographer
Reid Callanan, Director, Santa Fe Photographic Workshops
