Current Photo Contests

In this age of digital photography, more and more photographers are seeking an alternative. This return to labor and craftsmanship resists the quick-fix of inkjet technology and values something much more satisfying and elusive. The best examples are, first and foremost, great photographs. Yet, these are photographs with a richer tale to tell - one that shows the mark of the maker, and the effects of light on a hand-coated surface. These are not just images, they are objects.
