Our Earth is stressed and the future of our planet and our existence is in question. Believers in Science and climate change battle those who deny the negative impact Man has on the environment and the habitability of our precious home. With our efforts we hope to show Earth’s beauty and uniqueness and honor our one and only beloved home. Let’s honor the Earth and all its beauty and glory by exhibiting our most amazing color natural Landscapes.

We are very happy to have Photographic Artist Jody Miller as Juror for this exhibit.

I am honored to jury this exhibit at LightBox. It seems fitting for this period of time. Most people will admit that it’s been a hard year for so many of us; a year of catastrophe and despair that seems overwhelming at times, especially for those of us who express our emotional selves with art. This call is for a bit of beauty, visions that affirm our relationship to Nature in its beauty. However you view the natural world, please share your visions of that beauty. Let us share our visions of the natural world and bring back some sense of balance and positivity through our art.
The images we photographers make of the landscape are as individual as we are. Whatever we do with our cameras, no two landscapes are ever the same; that is the beauty of the ever changing light upon this earth. Every image we produce is completely unique in that moment, conveying a personal vision that cannot be duplicated by another. Our individual perception of color are also completely unique to each one of us and open to different interpretations. That is the attraction to the craft of making color images. The choices are endless and the end result of a harmonious use of color can be very satisfying. I invite you to submit your finest color landscape images, all are welcome.
