2025 GSA Calendar Photo Search

We know that geoscientists have talent—so give us your best shot! You may enter up to three (3) images in landscape orientation using these categories as a guide.

1. Iconic Landscapes—Striking or notable geologic landscapes and features.
2. Abstract Images—The patterns of geology at any scale, photomicrographs to satellite images.
3. Geologic Processes Past and Present—Process or feature resulting from a specific process. For example: An erupting volcano or volcanic rocks that represent ancient eruptions.

For ease of review of the entries by the judging committee, please send file(s) in jpeg format and no larger than 1 MB. If your image is chosen for the calendar, we’ll ask you to send a high-resolution file and to sign a form granting GSA permission to use the image in a variety of media. You will retain all rights to your image.

How to Enter

Email the following to editing@geosociety.org with a subject line of “Calendar Submission”:
