NYC4PA Call for Entry - ONE: Remember the Three Dog Night song "One is the Loneliest Number". But is it? In this call we are looking for those images with a single compelling focal point. It could be a person or thing that is alone in the frame or an element of a large grouping that clearly stands out. A lot filled with blue cars with a single bright red one would fit the bill as would a portrait reminiscent of Andrew Wyeth's "Christina's World", and the six foot tall teacher surrounded by his or her grade school class.

PORTALS Call for Entry: There was a popular and silly song in the 1950's, "Close the Doors, They're Coming in the Windows". What about those doors and windows and arches and frames and tunnels? There are so many ways to capture them: looking at them, or through them. We can poke our hand out the window to test the weather, or just see a wonderful scene a little differently when framed by an arch or array of tree limbs in a park. Your images can focus on the "portal" itself like a closed door, etc.
