"Nature is not a place to visit. It is home." — Gary Snyder

Photo Artfolio invites photographers worldwide to participate in Wild, an online exhibition dedicated to celebrating the remarkable richness, diversity, and enduring beauty of the natural world. This international call for entries aims to showcase photographs that explore the relationship between living organisms and the environments they inhabit, revealing both the grandeur of nature and its most intimate details.

The exhibition welcomes images that reflect the countless expressions of life found across the planet. Subjects may include iconic wildlife, endangered species, expansive landscapes, untouched wilderness, intricate plant life, marine environments, seasonal transformations, and quiet moments that reveal the delicate balance of ecosystems. Whether capturing the intensity of a predator in pursuit, the elegance of a bird in flight, the remarkable textures of fungi and flowers, or the timeless beauty of mountains, wetlands, forests, deserts, and oceans, every photograph should communicate a sense of wonder, respect, and connection to the natural world.

Submissions are open to all genres of nature photography, including wildlife, landscape, macro, conservation, documentary, aerial, underwater, fine art, and experimental approaches that maintain photography as their primary medium. Wild celebrates authentic photographic storytelling and encourages artists to present original work that highlights the beauty and importance of the Earth's ecosystems. AI-generated imagery is not eligible, ensuring the exhibition remains dedicated to photographs created through direct observation, patience, and creative vision.
