THE TURTLE BAY PHOTO COMPETITION AND EXHIBITION: CELEBRATING TURTLE BAY'S SENSE OF PLACE SUMMER!
Artists of all ages were invited to submit their best shot** for this remarkable local photography competition and exhibition celebrating our unique North State setting. Presented by Shasta Regional Medical Center, Find Your Walden in Redding is the companion exhibition to Thoreau's Walden: A Journey in Photographs by Scot Miller.
Walden is much more than just a pond. It has become synonymous with finding a personal connection with nature and one's surroundings. Photographers, young and old, amateur and professional submitted photographs to help us celebrate our SENSE OF PLACE SUMMER, all focusing on our beautiful place here in the North State.
Winners photographs will be displayed in Turtle Bay's Art Gallery in one of four exhibitions based upon entrant categories. Winning photos will also be displayed on our website beginning on the 15th of the month following each exhibition closing (click on the exhibition below to view the exhibition's winning photographs).
