Join us for an inspiring evening, enjoy a photography walk, and choose to participate in the optional follow-up photography contest. Golden hours is one of the most beautiful times of the day and mid-May means you will immerse yourself in the early spring buds, blooms, birds, and butterflies of the meadow!
Artist-in-Partnership Matt Witt
Photography talk and walk: All are welcome. From amateurs to professional photographers, film or digital, fancy cameras or cell phone cameras... we will emphasize capturing imagery that imparts a connection to land. We'll see sampling of 7 years of Vesper Meadow photographs from Artist-in-Partnership Matt Witt and learn about composing photographs that reflect love of the land and its living beings. Then participants will walk in small groups or solo to explore and capture images at Vesper Meadow with a photographer's eye, using whatever camera device you may have.
Contest: Photo submissions will be accepted via weblink (provided upon registration), through June 1st. Photos will be selected by a juried panel In both Professional and Beginner categories, one winner and one runner-up will be selected in each of the following themes:
Healing Creek
Forest Life
Humans on the Land
Living in Reciprocity
Contest winners will be featured in Vesper Meadow media and a local art showing later in the year.
Space is limited, register to hold your spot:
