At Night

Texas Photo Society presents At Night, a 50-image photography exhibition juried by renowned night photographer Lance Keimig. The exhibition will be held at the Museum of the Big Bend in Alpine, Texas, from June 11 to September 5, 2021. At Night will spotlight the dark sky while building awareness about light pollution and its disruption of wildlife and ecological balances. The call seeks photography exploring all aspects of urban and rural night photography from twilight to dawn, including astral photos, city lights, wildlife, and landscapes. Both color and black-and-white images are accepted, as well as all photo-based processes from artists of all levels.

An opening reception and symposium weekend with lectures and workshops focused on photography and the dark sky are planned for June 12 & 13 at The Museum of the Big Bend. TPS will partner with McDonald Observatory, Big Bend Conservation Alliance, Globe at Night, and Texas Master Naturalist to provide expert content. The juror will select 50 images by 50 artists for the exhibition. Awards include First Place ($500), Second Place ($300), Third Place ($200), and up to 5 Honorable Mentions.

Non-member entry fee is $38 for 5 images, plus $6 for each additional image. Submit digital JPG files only, minimum 1200 pixels on the longest side and 5 MB maximum.
