Parklands: North America’s Crown Jewels

Okay so I am thinking of entering three of my pictures into a photo competition and need to make a decision as to which three. I figured I would turn to my friends for help choosing. Let me know which ones are your favorites by leaving me a comment. Also, check out the Filoli post on my blog which has some potential contestants in it and please check back as I may add some other potential entries as I continue to take photos this month (contest entries due at the end of May).


EXHIBITION OVERVIEW

The Theme: Parklands, North America's Crown Jewels

Some of the finest places to visit and appreciate in Canada, Mexico, and the USA are located in our park

systems. There we discover plants, animals, waterfalls, canyons, forests, deserts, rock formations, historic

features, snowy peaks, reflecting lakes – the list is almost infinite. This exhibit is a celebration of treasures on

lands that are owned by the public, and are therefore accessible to all. Your subjects can be any aspect of the

park systems: national, state or county. Besides the usual icons, we welcome the subtle and hidden locations

that reveal something special and capture the appeal of the place.

The Parklands Exhibit will consist of the 30 entries juried to be exceptional, finely crafted photographs that

reflect the theme.
