VISUAL SUBMISSIONS

Visual Submissions: Small objects and tiny worlds
We’re continuing our reader-sourced Murmuration section this winter, and we need your help. Each season we put out a call for photography in response to a specific theme, then pick fifteen of our favorites to run as a group of 2 x 3 images in a grid format at the front of the magazine.

This time we’re looking for images that depict small objects, tiny worlds, and microcosms. Submit 1-3 images, and if we select one, you’ll get a complimentary year-long subscription to Orion. Don’t worry about resolution or specs yet, but know that horizontally oriented photographs work best.

*By submitting these images to Orion for inclusion in the Murmuration section of the magazine you also grant us permission for non-exclusive potential future use of said images with proper attribution, if selected.

Submit your photographs here from August 15-30th, 2022. (A link to Submittable will appear here when the visual submission period opens.)
