Fraser River Discovery Centre Calls for Photographs for Annual *click*
Exhibit 


New Westminster, BC – Are you an amateur photographer or a photography
enthusiast? Have you captured a fabulous image of the Fraser River that
tells a story? The Fraser River Discovery Centre is looking for photographs
for the annual *click* photos of the fraser exhibit that will be unveiled
during RiverFest: Inspired by the Fraser in September.

 

>From the Rocky Mountains to the Salish Sea, the 1375 km stretch of the
Fraser River is home to almost 3 million people, each with a unique view of
the river. *click* photos of the fraser aims to bring together a collection
of these points of view and invites photographers of all ages to submit
photographs that capture the life of the river and the basin.

 

Each year since the exhibit debuted in 2010 as part of the Fraser River
Discovery Centre’s annual Rivers Day celebration, *click* photos of the
fraser has been refreshed with a series of outstanding photographs.
Beginning this year, a theme has been added to the criteria and the show
will be juried with a first, second and third place honours.

 

“I am really excited about the changes we’ve made to *click* for 2013,“ says
Kathleen Bertrand, Exhibit Coordinator for the Discovery Centre. “I will be
interested to see how this year’s theme, Industry on the River, is
interpreted by photographers. I am also hoping to get some entries from
people who work out on the river. Their perspective in the exhibit will
showcase a view of the river not often seen by the majority of our
visitors.” 

*click* photos of the fraser is a three part exhibit. Selected photographs
will be displayed in the galleries of the Fraser River Discovery Centre,
online at  <http://www.Flickr.com/groups/clickphotosofthefraser>
www.Flickr.com/groups/clickphotosofthefraser and for one month as Cover
Photo of the Month on the Discovery Centre’s Facebook page.

 

Submissions will be accepted throughout the year with only those received by
August 15 being included in the jury selection. For further information,
guidelines and an applicant, please visit our website at
