A View from Flyover Country
The Mpls Photo Center seeks submissions for: A View from Flyover Country. Jurored by Jim Brandenburg. Entry Submission CLOSES April 17. First 3 Images: $25. The Mpls Photo Center will produce ALL Final Exhibit Selections at 16"X 20" (or Larger), at no Additional Cost to the selected Artists. Exhibition Opens May 17, 2019. On exhibit thru July 13, 2019.
This competition and exhibition is looking for photographs that convey the realities of life in America’s great, sometimes overlooked heartland. "Flyover Country" refers to the part of our country between the East and West coasts that some Americans only view by air on transcontinental flights, and never actually see in person at ground level. The phrase is sometimes used pejoratively. Afterall, our now-interior states started out less a destination, and more a corridor to get even further West. Our great industrial cities were built as hubs to somewhere else, a place where the rivers and the railroads met. Sprawling suburbs were built atop and between eradicated cornfields. Even today, coastal travelers often stop only to change planes, a fact that has cemented our identity as a place to be passed-over. Many of us prefer it that way. It keeps the riff-raff out.
In this great Midwest, in the evenings when the last bit of light stretches across the prairie on the outskirts of every town, and later when the whistles of the coast-bound trains become part of the overnight soundscape, there is the sense that the rest of the world is moving, while we remain still. Over this entire landscape; the northwoods, the sand dunes, the tall-grass prairies, and the glacial moraines, everywhere you go in this great middle-place there is the continual sound of transit, of things passing thru. Travelers are made uncomfortable by our hauntingly open landscapes, where the seemingly endless fields and empty highways can illicit so much lonely wonder. The winters are dark and brutal, and at dusk on the horizon just the faintest glimpse of a sunset.
Please share your photographs with us.
Submitting Your Images: You can enter your images online at www.SmarterEntry.com For best results, submit your images at 5000 pixels on the longest side, (ideally a 20MB file or much LARGER, to ensure a proper enlargement at 16X20 inches at 280 PPI.) Please send the Highest Resolution JPEGS or TIFFS you can. For this competition, MPC will be printing the Select Exhibit images for YOU. You will not need to provide a print or framed image. We will send you the print after the Exhibit. We will collect shipping fees in the Final Selection round. Images should be in JPEG or TIFF format, sRGB color space. If you need help entering your images or are unable to, please contact info@mplsphotocenter.com or call: 612-643-3511.
Entry Fee: $25 USD per 3 images. Additional images: $10 each. A total of 8 submissions allowed.
Eligibility: All photographers of any age or location may enter. Black-and-white or color, analog, digital, iPhone or antique processes, photographers of all skill levels and locations are welcome.
All images submitted must be those of the submitter. Please do not submit images previously selected for a Mpls Photo Center exhibition within two years of this scheduled exhibition.

NYC4PA TREES 2019
A tree grows in Brooklyn
Can't see the forest for the trees
Tangerine trees and marmalade skies
There are references to trees all around us - in music, literature, proverbs, etc. But they are also an iconic visual.
Trees make up forests and jungles. They stand alone on hillsides creating lovely shadows. They can be tall and straight like a winter pine or bend in the wind. Limbs and branches create wonderful patterns against the sky. A tree will shade a child on a hot day; provide a sturdy posts to tie up the pet dog or hold a hammock off the ground, as well as support a backyard laundry line.
Send us your images of trees as you experience them – forests, single trees, branches, roots….

SIERRA ART TRAILS 2019 - Yosemite Foothills Open Studio Tour - Friday, Saturday & Sunday, October 4-6, 2018
Welcome to Sierra Art Trails 2019, our 17th annual Yosemite Foothills Open Studio Tour. The exhibit is the largest art event in our area, showcasing a wide range of fine art and fine craft in communities throughout Eastern Madera and Mariposa Counties.
The region encompassed by the show includes Oakhurst, Coarsegold, North Fork, Yosemite Lakes Park , and communities along Highway 49 from Ahwahnee to Mariposa. The show takes place in artist’s studios, homes, art galleries, wineries, and other businesses throughout the area.
Sierra Art Trails is open to visual artists and artisans working in all media including but not limited to; painting, drawing, ceramics, sculpture, photography, printmaking, mixed media, papermaking, woodcarving, digital art, jewelry, textile arts, and art glass. Mass produced crafts, gift items, etc. will not be accepted.
Sierra Art Trails is open to both local artists and artists from outside the area. Artists with studios located in Eastern Madera and Mariposa Counties are encouraged to show in their home studios, and to share their show sites with others.
The planning committee will work with artists who do not have access to a suitable show site to help them find a location to show their work. First consideration is given to artists living within the area, but the show is open to any artist interested in participating in the event, regardless of where they live.
Artists must be Present to Participate - Artists must be present at their sites both Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 6pm. Friday is an optional day for participating artists.
Since our first exhibit in 2003, Sierra Art Trails has built a dedicated audience excited to attend year after year. In addition to visiting with the artists and purchasing works directly from the people who create them, visitors are encouraged to explore our communities, patronize our hotels and restaurants, and learn more about our area.
As an artist, there are many reasons to consider applying for the show. Participating artists are featured in the tour catalog, included in a month-long Preview Exhibit, and benefit from an extensive advertising campaign. While successful sales are important, the promotional exposure alone is well worth the cost of participation. Networking opportunities, offers to participate in other exhibits, and post show sales often result from participation in Sierra Art Trails.

The Beauty of Nature
The falling of snowflakes coming down
Making a blanket of white on the ground.
Autumn with red and gold-leaves,
Falling to the ground, in a cool breeze.
The rising of the sun of crimson,
A buzzing of the Bees,
As they go on their mission.
A cool-breeze blowing in the trees.
The beautiful- flowers of red, yellow, and blue.
The sparkling of grass, with morning-dew.
The sea is beautiful, with Blue-sky above.
The flying of sea-gulls and of doves.
The birds singing up in the trees,
As a gentle-wind blows the green-leaves.
Beautiful-butterflies going their way.
The beauty of nature, really make my day!
