SUMMARY:Members’ Forum (In Person) - Blur with Gary Perlow
DESCRIPTION:Bio: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGary Perlow\, an ex-New Yorker\, has been living in the northern Virginia area for over 30 years.  He was a home builder who especially enjoyed designing kitchens and bathrooms.  He is presently actively involved in commercial real estate investment. \n\n\n\nHe began taking photographs seriously around 2013\, and has been a member of NVPS since 2018.  His favorite genres are conceptual\, landscape\, and portrait.  Always looking to grow as a photographer\, he enjoys learning\, studying\, and experimenting with new ways to express ideas visually. \n\n\n\nGary has won awards for his photography\, including a national best-in-show in monochrome in 2024 from the Photographic Society of America\, two best-in-shows from Nature Visions/MAPV in 2019 and 2022 (as well as in a variety of categories)\, and the NVPS’s Ollie Fife award in 2022. \n\n\n\nHe has been exhibiting photographs in galleries around the country and in Barcelona\, Spain. He currently is participating in a group show at the Carter Burden Gallery in Manhattan. \n\n\n\nBlur: \n\n\n\nBlur in photography is something we have always experienced many times – but it is not always a flaw: it can be a powerful tool for expressing emotion and creativity.  By intentionally incorporating blur\, photographers can enhance the storytelling aspect of their images and create mystery\, as well.

SUMMARY:Member's Forum - (In Person) Travel Photography with Cameras that Fit in Your Pocket with George Hogeman
DESCRIPTION:Bio: \n\n\n\nGeorge Hogeman\n\n\n\nGeorge Hogeman retired in 2019 following 31 years with the Department of State\, including 22 years overseas mainly in Africa and Asia. Earlier he met his wife Geri while serving in the Peace Corps in Kenya. In 2014\, he began shooting mirrorless when he bought an Olympus E-M10 and since acquired an uncomfortably extravagant number of other mirrorless cameras\, lenses and accessories. He enjoys infrared and astrophotography and visits Huntley Meadows at least once a month.  \n\n\n\nDescription of the Presentation: \n\n\n\nGeorge and his wife Geri have had the good fortune to have made several overseas trips since George retired in 2019. Sometimes\, their travel has required them to travel lightly without confirmed access to airline overhead bin space so cameras and personal items had to fit under the seat. Furthermore\, several of these have been group tours where opportunities to slow down and compose an image with an interchangeable lens camera are relatively rare. Despite these challenges\, he has enjoyed taking pictures while traveling and has been pleased with the images he has been able to create. Thus\, he has carefully narrowed his travel cameras to those that are small\, turn on fast and focus quickly\, including the TG-7 from OM Systems (formerly Olympus) and the Ricoh GRIII and GRIIIx. Each of these cameras has particular strengths and weaknesses but they complement each other remarkably well.  \n\n\n\nIn the presentation\, George will show several cameras and share some of the images taken by these cameras from Morocco\, Japan\, France\, Spain\, Portugal\, Italy and elsewhere.All images created by George Hogeman:
