Petals of blossoming flowers and the simple emergence of leaves from the new growth of the season are welcoming visuals for the eyes after the long winter slumber. During this spring season of growth the Petals and Leaves exhibition will celebrate photographs of flowers and plants in all their forms .

This exhibition will represent images from a wide spectrum of petals and leaves from plant varieties that are grown and appreciated in our lives.
Each photograph will be considered based upon the merit of individual images submitted by each artist. Series based entries are not necessary, and a range of different images are preferred.
