“Photography is an art of observation. It has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” -Elliot Erwitt

The Gallery at OSA is proud to present our 2023 Photography Exhibit, in partnership with Portland Photographers Forum. The show is open to any photographic genre, subject matter, or location to encourage participation. We are fortunate to have many unique and talented photographers in the Portland area and many beautiful photographic destinations in the Pacific Northwest.

The juror for OSA’s 2023 Photography Show is Oregon-based landscape photographer Gary Randall. Gary Randall is an award winning professional photographer, artist, writer, traveler and adventure seeker. Through the last 15 years his digital photography has been recognized as some of the best in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States and beyond.

This show is generously sponsored by The Kinsman Foundation.
