Call for Entries

Trees mark time. From spring’s first buds to autumn’s final blaze, they quietly witness the turning of the seasons—enduring, transforming, and echoing nature’s rhythms.

This juried exhibition invites photographs that explore the relationship between trees and seasonal change. From the stark beauty of winter branches to the lush greens of summer and the fleeting colors of fall, we welcome images that capture the power, poetry, and presence of trees throughout the year.

All photographic styles are welcome—from literal to abstract, intimate to expansive.

We are honored to have Lee Ann White as the juror for Trees and Seasons. She will select up to 35 images in our Middlebury, Vermont Exhibition gallery and another 40 images for our Online Gallery. All 75 images will be reproduced in the exhibition catalog and remain permanently on our website, and be promoted on social media with links to photographers' URL. 

Submission Fee: $39 for 5 images, $6 for each additional image
