The Lincoln Gallery and the Thompson Valley Art League invite you to enter the 2022 NATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY SHOW. Open to all photographers residing in the United States. Work must be the work of the photographer, not copied from published photos or works by other photographers. All entries must be for sale. No installations or sets of multiple works to make one entry will be accepted.

Cash awards will be given for Best of Show and 1st and 2nd place in each Category.

JUROR: Scots-born landscape, travel and wildlife photographer, Scott Wilson, is a multi-year finalist in the UK Landscape Photographer of the Year, scored Judge’s Choice in this year’s North American Nature Photography Association Awards and took Best in Show in the 2021 Y/OUR Denver Exhibition, co-hosted by the Denver Architecture Society and the Colorado Photographic Art Center. Scott regularly captures the drama of Colorado’s wild mustangs which roam the northwest corner of the state and his work has featured in media ranging from the UK Sunday Times to Advanced Photographer, 5280, Denver Life, 303 Magazine, Colorado Life and the Denver Post. Scott, who recently opened Gallery 6 in Denver, says his judging philosophy is story, impact, composition, content and craft - in that order.
