SUMMARY:Member’s Gallery: (In-Person) - The Many Moods of Mist: Photographs from Eastern France with David Miller
DESCRIPTION:David’s mother\, an amateur art historian\, introduced him to the fine arts\, but it was his sister — then a serious photographer — who gave him his first camera in high school. She later advised him to get a Pentax when he went to Africa with the Peace Corps. During his career in international development that followed\, David used the Pentax and a series of Cannon PowerShots and iPhones to capture street scenes and portraits. By the early 2000’s he was posting his images on social media. During this time\, he also began creating and posting photo collages (@crashingphotos) and abstracts (@davidabstracted). More recently\, David has shot with Olympus cameras focused on intimate landscape compositions\, primarily in Virginia and eastern France. He joined NVPS in 2025. \n\n\n\nSince his retirement in 2021\, summers find David at his wife’s family home in eastern France composing intimate landscapes that often include the mist that travels over the region’s freshwater lakes\, limestone cliffs\, hilly farmlands and pine forests. Like other photographers\, David uses mist to simplify his compositions and isolate subjects. He also uses it to intensify the atmosphere and create a mood. Sometimes mist itself is the subject of his photographs. In this gallery\, David presents a selection of photos\, some drawn from his 2025 portfolio\, that use these techniques to show the many moods of mist in Eastern France

SUMMARY:Member’s Gallery - (Print) (In-Person) People with David Kravitz
DESCRIPTION:Photo by Brian Rodriguez\n\n\n\nDuring his high school years\, David Kravitz had his own dark room and enjoyed exploring black and white film photography. Then life intervened. After college\, graduate school\, and a 40-year academic career\, he has returned to photography\, as he always intended\, though he has left film for digital. He joined NVPS in 2019 and is immensely grateful for all he has gained from his membership. \n\n\n\nDescription of presentationDavid’s photographic interests are diverse\, but portrait photography is not an emphasis. He has chosen to present his photographs of people – drawn primarily from his travels or local public events – with the hope that this experience will help him overcome his hesitancy to ask strangers if he can photograph them.

SUMMARY:Member’s Gallery: (In-Person) - Seasons of the Garden with Susan Blalock
DESCRIPTION:Bio\n\n\n\nSusan Blalock\n\n\n\nSusan was introduced to photography by her grandfather\, but after college she did not have much time for photography.  The 2020 pandemic gave Susan time to spend taking photos.  Susan found NVPS through a simple google search and has been active member since 2021.  In 2025\, Susan was NVPS’ Novice Versatile Photographer of the year.  She enjoys shooting a variety of subjects including flowers and garden photography\, abstracts using ICM\, wildlife\, and architectural photography.    \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDescription\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs an avid gardener\, Susan enjoys photographing plants wherever she goes.  Whether formal gardens or on roadsides\, there is always something to see and shoot.  While a garden is at its prime in the warmer months\, there is still plenty to see and photograph in all seasons.  A garden is not just home to plants\, but a variety of insects\, birds\, and small mammals who also depend on the garden to maintain them throughout the year.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAll images by Susan Blalock
