Participate in Double Vision 2021

Participate in Double Vision 2021

 

Georgia Nature Photographers Association (GNPA) will partner with the Chattahoochee Nature Center (CNC) and the Roswell Fine Arts Association (RFAA) for the 6th Annual Photo Competition and Exhibit that is to be included as part of the fall Atlanta Celebrates Photography event. The theme is titled Double Vision. Twenty-four (24) images will be selected in the contest to be exhibited in the CNC River Resource Gallery in Roswell, Georgia. These same images will be interpreted by artists from the RFAA. When brought to the CNC for hanging, the photographic image and the artist’s interpretation will be hung side-by-side…thus the theme name Double Vision.

This Contest/Exhibit is open to all members of GNPA. If you are not a GNPA member, join today (http://www.gnpa.org).  The entry fee for this Contest/Exhibit is $5/image. Entry for the contest will be through the GNPA website.   Sign-in to the Member Home page and look for the announcement and link below your member badge.

Images must have been taken in Georgia or contiguous states.  There is no restriction on when the photo was taken.  Entries can be any nature subject. There are 3 categories for entry:  macro, landscape, and wildlife.   Full details of the contest are attached below.

Framing specifications are available here.  Twelve images will be selected to hang on the Wall using 22” x 28” frames.  The twelve images selected for the Grids will use 16” x 20” frames.
