The juror for this portrait exhibit will be looking for portraits that "bring the viewer into a visual dialogue with the sitter". It’s a challenge to have such rapport with your subject that they let down their guard and suddenly you know that you have an extraordinary Portrait - with a capital "P"! 

Have you got portrait shots that draw out your subjects in ways that reveals personality, character, emotions? How does this happen? This is what earned early photographers the title of "spirit catchers"!

Awards:

• The opportunity to have your work evaluated by a qualified juror for display in our Vermont gallery with very little expense or hassle. We provide free matting and framing of accepted entries for the duration of each of our exhibitions, subject to standard sizes. Photographers set their own prices if they wish to sell their work and retain all rights to their photographs.

Theme: SELF-SEARCHING: The Art of Self-Portraiture

Within the photographic genre of self-portraiture, some of the most probing, surprising, and thoughtful images have been made in the history of the medium.  For "Self-Searching" we seek self-portraits that go beyond surface appearance to comment on the hopes, dreams, fears, and identities of the individuals pictured. 

Juror Aline Smithson will choose forty photos for exhibition at PhotoPlace Gallery in Middlebury, Vermont. She will select an addiitonal thirty-five images for inclusion in the "On-Line Gallery Annex." All seventy-five photographs will be reproduced in a full-color exhibiiton catalogue that will be available for purchase. We offer free matting and framing for accepted photographs that fit our pre-cut mat sizes for the duration of the exhibition.
