ORANGE YOU GLAD?
I am amazed by how often I am reminded that it is all about perspective. My child loves tomato sauce and ketchup but will only eat home-grown, raw tomatoes. He’ll put ranch dressing on virtually anything…except chicken. But, then again, I love oranges but seriously dislike orange juice. Go figure. This next Call seeks your perspective.
Check out this Call for Entries for the Lens 2011 competition from the Perspective Gallery located just north of Chicago. All subject matter and photographic processes are accepted, and their sales commission is only 30%. Take a look…
