PHOTO PLACE GALLERY: Capturing the Light

CAPTURING THE LIGHT
Photographers understand that the subject of every photograph is the light it reflects, and that the specific quality of that light can profoundly affect the power of the photograph. 

For this exhibit, we seek images whose success depends on the quality of the light. Whether light or dark, bright or dull, natural or artificial, the subject of these images is the magic, the possibilities, and the nuances of the light itself. Give us some thoughtful visual interpretations illustrating the word 'luminosity'. 

Any capture or process is welcome. 

Juror Laura Moya will select approximately 35 images for exhibition in the gallery, and 35 for our Online Gallery Annex. The recipients of the Juror's Award and the Director's Award will each be entitled to a portfolio review by Laura Moya. 

In addition, five copies of Amy Friend's book Dare Alle Luce (Italian for To Bring to the Light, published by Photolucida) will be distributed to five finalists.
