As our relationship to our planet becomes increasingly fragile, images that encourage us to appreciate natural wonders seem ever more important. PhotoPlace Gallery seeks photos of the natural world, from sublime landscape vistas to details of the forest floor.

Juror David Middleton will choose approximagely forty photographs for exhibition at PhotoPlace Gallery, in Middlebury, Vermont, and on the gallery website. He will choose an additional 35 images for website display only. All selected work will be included in a full-color exhibition catalogue, available for purchase. PhotoPlace Gallery provides free matting and framing of exhibited works, providing they conform to our pre-cut mat and frame sizes. rd
