National Photo Contest
Filed Under Photo Contests | Leave a Comment
From an e-mail:
“The American Juried Art Salon is holding its second biannual national juried exhibition with a February 28, 2006 submission deadline. Our Fall 2005 show was highly successful, resulting in 16% of the accepted artists being contacted by major North American galleries.
For the upcoming show we will be providing free jury feedback on all submissions so that artists will know why they were or were not juried into the exhibition.
Our Board of Distinguished Jurists includes well known art professors and directors of major galleries. Among those jurying the Photography entries will be Charles DeBus, Senior Lecturer in Photography at Southern Methodist University and a former collegue of Ansel Adams.
Interested photographers are invited to visit us at www.artjury.com.
With Best Wishes for 2006,
The American Juried Art Salon
PS. Please contact us with any questions or comments you may have.

“We are acutely conscious that far too many emails are sent out on spec so our
apologies in advance but we provide tours and courses that may be of interest
to members of your photographic group.
We are sure that quite a few of your members will be keen on Close-up and
Macro Photography so the chances are that they will have come across books by
best selling author Paul Harcourt Davies – The Complete Guide to Close-up &
Macro Photography and Nature Photography Close-up (Amphoto) and The Complete
Guide to Outdoor Photography
Hidden Worlds is run by Paul HD and partner Lois Ferguson – we offer the best
in personal photographic tuition, photogenic locations and congenial company

and base our activities in Italy, one of the most photogenic countries on
earth, and can offer a real insider take on what is around for between us we
have over 30 years experience of providing courses and tours for discerning
clients.
