“Joy
comes to us in moments — ordinary moments. We risk missing out on joy
when we get too busy chasing down the extraordinary." —Brené Brown
As photographers, we have developed skill in seeing beneath the
surface of our subjects, and often find in them the beauty, poignancy,
and poetry that exist in ordinary moments. For this exhibition, we seek
the simple poetic elegance of ordinary people, places, and objects. All
captures and processes are welcome.
We are honored that Sarah Sudhoff will be the juror for The Poetry of
the Ordinary. She will select 35 images for exhibition in our
Middlebury, Vermont gallery and another 35 for our Online Gallery.

WHAT WE DO
PhotoPlace
Gallery offers monthly, juried photographic exhibitions to
photographers worldwide, each with a new topic and internationally
recognized juror.
Juror selections are exhibited in either our physical gallery in
Middlebury, Vermont or in our Online gallery on our website. All past
exhibitions remain permanently posted on the website.
We encourage creative interpretation of our themes. Images do need to
relate to the theme, but they need not be entirely literal.
