'Untitled (Chips and Clouds)' by Joseph Williams

'As a landscape and street photographer, one of my main interests is capturing visually interesting images when various types of communications (e.g., signage, storefronts) interact with the surrounding environment. In this case, serendipity was at play: I followed the truck for a quarter mile before it pulled into a parking lot, and the clouds, though moving briskly, eventually cooperated.'

'Morning Light in the Winter Forest' by Christina Hasslinger

'As I was walking along a hiking trail in the wintertime in Washington state, I noticed this beam of light through the tree branches. It was serendipitious to capture this fleeting moment before the New Year of 2026.'

'Day Trip' by John Morgan-Sagar

'Photography is my way of escaping, recharging, and reconnecting with the world around me. I’m drawn to fleeting moments where light and subject come together in a way that feels natural and powerful.

The simple act of pressing the shutter never loses its magic—it’s in that instant that I capture not just an image, but a feeling. My work is about preserving those quiet, meaningful moments that might otherwise pass unnoticed.'

'Tangier laundry' by Pat Moore

''Coming upon this scene, it seemed like a stage with curtains for the absent human who hung the wash, one of the many tasks of daily life. Carrying a camera, one is often witness to and offering testimony of the vivid beauty present in the everyday 'doing what needs to be done'.''
