2024 summer scavenger hunt

“What do I make of all this texture? What does it mean about the kind of world in which I have been set down?” (Annie Dillard)

The natural world is full of textures. Think of the rough bark of a tree, the sponginess of moss, the bumpy skin of a toad. This year, NHSM challenges you to find and document in photographs as many textures as possible. One point will be awarded for each texture you document.

Complete rules, a list of textures, and instructions for uploading your submissions will be emailed to you after registering.

You may compete on your own or in a team of up to five friends/family members. Prizes will be awarded in both categories (individual and team).
