SMOKE
gets in your eyes
Some people truly excel at cooking out in the elements. I’m not talking about pimped out BBQ grills on your 400 square foot deck. I’m talking about those folks that can rub two sticks together to make fire or bury things in the coals that turn out like gourmet treats. I am not that girl. I’m not really a fan of living in the elements–period. I mastered s’mores & “Angels Riding Horeseback” (cheese dogs) in the Girl Scouts, but I got that badge by the skin of my teeth. I CAN admit the elements ARE beautiful, and this next Call will help you prove it. Great theme…
Check out this Call for Entries from the Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for Five Elements. The entry fee at Darkroom is always low ($24), and they will provide free matting & framing if you work in their standard sizes. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Five Elements
Photograph the beauty of nature, five elements provide the foundation for our entire physical world.
Earth, and everything on it, is the product of different combinations of the five basic elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. Everything found in our world is unique because it contains a varying ratio of these five elements.
Whether walking headfirst into a gale of wind or digging our hands into the soil, we possess an inherent familiarity with the elements. All organic and inorganic substances are combinations of them, be it a time-polished rock or a shiny piece of plastic. A multitude of spiritual practices revolve around these five important pieces of the universe.
They are looking for photographic depictions of the natural world. Landscapes, macro & micro shots, abstractions & realistic images that capture the beauty, uniqueness and magic which makes up our planet.
