SUMMARY:Member's Gallery: "Prints" with Roger Lancaster; "Digital" with Chuck Campbell
DESCRIPTION:Member: Roger Lancaster –  “Scene From My Eyes” \nBio for Roger Lancaster \nA native of Western Canada\, Roger first handled a camera when he was 6 years old when his grandfather\, a photo journalist\, let him use his old fold up camera. But it was not until he retired as an association executive 10 years ago that he took a serious interest in the craft. He sees photography\, not just as a record of events in life\, but an opportunity to bring the outdoors inside for all to enjoy. He also sees it as an opportunity to bring out his creative side\, and enjoys the artistic side of processing images as much as he does in capturing the photo. \nRoger initially shot landscape images\, but in recent years has gravitated to a more eclectic style with macro photography\, and experimenting with monochromatic processing of images. \nRoger has received numerous awards for his photography\, including the Best of Loudoun photo for two years running at the Waterford Fair\, an award sponsored by the Loudoun Now newspaper. A number of his images have been juried into Nature Visions Photo Expo. Many of his images have appeared in both popular and photographic journals and he has been the featured photographer in several issues of Grand Strand magazine\, a popular South Carolina based publication. Many of his images can be found in private collections. \nRoger has been an active member of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society since 2008. He has also just completed a 2 year term as President of the Nature Visions Photo Expo\, the premier nature photography expo in the Mid-Atlantic region. He currently uses a Nikon D500 as his primary camera\, although he has 3 other Nikons as spares. For processing he uses Lightroom and Photoshop\, and uses numerous filters\, especially the Topaz series. \nRoger and his wife Bunny live in Waterford and invite any members of NVPS who want to enjoy shooting photos in the outdoors to come and visit. \n    \n\nMember: Chuck Campbell – “A Shot in the Dark” \nDescription: This presentation is a compilation of outdoor images which were shot after sunset and before sunrise.  Most of the images were shot with a slow shutter speed to compensate for the lack of natural light.  And many of the images contain colorful artificial light and water reflections.   \nBio: Chuck Campbell is a long-time NVPS member and volunteer.  He enjoys the quiet solitude of shooting images long after others have gone home for the evening or before they wake up and get in the way of a good shot. When traveling\, Chuck always takes a tripod because he knows he will be taking many shots in the dark.  Unfortunately\, as he traveled across Europe and the U.S.\, he has missed many good meals with his wife as he waited for just the right blue-hour light.  With this presentation\, he will happily share those lonely\, hunger-induced images with you. \n  \n  \n  \n    \n

SUMMARY:Member's Gallery: "Prints" with Clark & Joan Barker; "Digital" with Judy McGuire
DESCRIPTION:NEAR AND FAR (Clark and Joan Barker) \nClark Barker \nClark’s photographic experience has mostly been as a tourist taking snapshots of interesting places visited and photos of his son and daughter when they were children.  After retirement as a staff analyst from the Navy Comptroller Clark and wife Joan have taken several overseas trips with organized tour groups. The use of tripods was not an option and the lighting was “as is” during bus stops and city tours. A fair number of photos were taken through a bus window. \nClark’s first “real” camera was a used 35mm fixed lens Voigtlander followed by a Minolta SRT101 when he became gainfully employed after college.  After a couple more Minoltas\, mostly using slide film\, he entered the digital age with an 8 megapixel Olympus\, followed by several Canon cameras.  He currently uses a Canon 5Dmk3 with Canon lenses. Most of the pre-digital photos became 35mm slides. \nClark used Photoshop Elements to process and print digital images for many years\, upgrading to Lightroom/Photoshop CC after joining NVPS four years ago.  He attributes improvements in technical skills and composition to NVPS and was the class two color print Photographer of the Year for 2016-2017. He cuts his own mats and does his own printing\, currently with an Epson P800 printer and his favorite paper is Ilford Gold Fibre Silk.  \nHe enjoys taking travel photos\, especially landscapes\, but has begun exploring other types of photography such as wildlife and macro since joining NVPS. \nJoan Barker \nAlthough Joan has always enjoyed photographing family and places they visited\, she was not sure that she would enjoy being a part of a photography club.  Joan was using a point and shoot camera at the time and knew nothing about F stop\, Shutter Speed\, or ISO.  Needless to say Joan has learned a lot in the past 4 years.  She now shoots with a mirrorless Panasonic Luminx Micro 4/3 camera and finally understands how to get off auto.  \nShe enjoys shooting landscapes\, flowers\, and abstracts.  Joan has surprised herself with the success she has had in the monthly competitions from the very beginning.  She loves doing post processing on the computer as it encourages her creative juices.  \nBeing retired gives her more time to pursue many interests and Joan is  pleased to add that photography is now one of them.  Joan was an educator and taught elementary school before her children were born. After kids\, she chose part time teaching and eventually administration in Early Childhood.  \nClark and Joan have two children\, a girl and boy\, and 3 grandkids.  They are favorite subjects to shoot for both of them.  In the future she would like to continue to improve her technical skills while keeping the creative side as a big part of what she does.  Joan is interested in becoming more proficient in monochrome photography. She appreciates all the help she receives from Clark and her two Mentors\, Willa and Willa.  Joan has learned a lot from these ladies reinforcing what Clark tries to teach her at home.   \nYes\, Joan is glad she joined as she enjoys the people and the programs but especially the competitions.  So much thanks to Bill Vanderpool and Nancy Dubiell for their encouragement to join NVSP. \n   \n\nTitle: Highlighting Varied Subjects \nDescription: Judy’s show will feature photos of varied subjects taken in the last couple years.  A number of locations will be highlighted\, many of them just a day trip away. \nBio: Judy McGuire became interested in photography and travel when she was 10 and took her first road trip to the western states with her family and her Kodak Brownie camera. She took snapshots documenting family\, friends\, pets and travels for many years before getting a Nikon SLR for slide photography\, and currently shoots with a Nikon D7200. \nSince she joined NVPS in 2001\, the club’s activities and members have been a constant inspiration for learning and improving her photography. Judy believes regular practice is critical to developing skills – as she tried to impress on young students during her many years of teaching piano. But in photography – as well in music – another part of the experience is enjoying the results! \nJudy is most interested in travel and nature photography and loves to photograph anywhere\, searching out back roads as well as obvious sites. She enjoys giving slide shows for various groups\, and makes calendars and note cards using her photographs. Her work has been juried into Nature Visions and the Joseph Miller Abstract Exhibits\, and published in Virginia Wildlife Magazine. She has won a number of awards in NVPS competitions\, including Slide of the Year\, Advanced Digital Image of the Year and Advanced Digital Photographer of the year three times.

SUMMARY:Members Gallery: "Prints" with Stan Bysshe; "Digital" with Tom Schum
DESCRIPTION:Stay Photographically Nimble\, Find Your Go To Place By Stan Bysshe \nWe all love to take pictures. I’d like to think that over the last forty years I have learned something about photography but I keep finding new ways to improve. Traveling to far off photogenic destinations can be inspiring\, but those trips\, for me\, are often separated by long time gaps. So the challenge becomes how to stay photographically nimble. When I was photographing primarily underwater\, I loved to visit the same reef time and again. Now\, shooting exclusively on land\, I have found my go to location near my home\, Huntley Meadows. Of course I travel locally to other spots\, but I try to get to Huntley at least once a week. Some mornings nature surprises me\, some mornings are slow\, but in every instance I have a camera in my hands and I have to deal with the conditions and subjects as they present themselves. Besides being outdoors\, I love that my time at Huntley is spent finding a special moment in nature and trying to capture it.  \nAll images were taken either with a Nikon D5 or D500. All were on a tripod and with one of two lenses\, Nikon 80-400mm and Nikon 500mm f4.  \nI love to print but try to keep it simple. I use an Epson Sure Color P800 with Epson papers\, pre cut mats and mat boards. \n    \n\nTom Schum (tomschumelectronics.com) Bio\nSince I was a teenager\, photography has been a hobby.  I shot and developed and printed monochrome 35mm in 1967-1970\, but took a long break to raise a family and pursue an electronics engineering career. \nLate in my career I was able to re-start the photography hobby\, this time digital.  After having a great time with a pocket Minolta Dimage X\, I bought a Canon 30D in 2004 and a Sigma point and shoot in 2006.  This was followed by more Sigmas and eventually some Fuji cameras. \nNow that I am retired I welcome lots of uncommitted time\, the ultimate luxury.  What better way to spend it than to aimlessly wander around town acting like a tourist? \nBy the time I retired\, I had spent way too much time sitting in front of the computer processing hobby images.  I concluded I don’t need to learn more about this end of photography. While I like to look at some of the arty images done by the many gifted members of this club\, I prefer to leave electric wires\, visual clutter\, litter\, and bird poop in my own images.  I like the authenticity. \nI like to watch and listen as the latest Lightroom and Photoshop techniques are ably explained and demonstrated in full detail at the NVPS meetings.  And\, I especially like not having to remember any of it. I’m not progressing in my technical skills. It’s too much like work! \nMy photographic vision is similarly hap-hazardous\, but every hundred or so snaps I get a keeper.  I even print now and then. I used to have an Epson R2000 but threw it out after years spent buying way too many ink cartridges.  I can highly recommend Nations Photo Labs on the web\, so long as you turn off their “color correction”. \nSo\, I don’t really have a photographic vision\, only just to shoot and enjoy. \nI like landscape\, street (if I can avoid bothering anybody)\, some wildlife\, standard tourist type photos and\, of course\, grandchildren (one so far). \nI joined NVPS in 2017 and prefer to shoot my Fuji X-T100 with manual lenses.  I have no future goals or plans for the development of my photography. \n    \n

SUMMARY:Member's Gallery: "Prints" - Eva Lanyi;  Digital: "Night Photography" - Chuck Campbell - Cancelled due to Weather!
DESCRIPTION:Eva Lanyi\nA member of NVPS since 2015\, Eva Lanyi has been interested in photography since her first blurry black and white photos of the neighbor’s dog\, taken with her Kodak Brownie Instamatic (which she still has).  School\, work\, and life in general created other priorities for many years. Since retiring from a 32-year federal career as an analyst\, she’s been able to concentrate more on photography and plans to make it a big part of her life going forward.   She would like to improve her technical and artistic abilities\, while keeping photography a fun\, enjoyable endeavor.  \nMs. Lanyi does mainly landscape and garden photography\, because she loves being outdoors.  She is trying to improve at bird and wildlife photography. In addition\, believing that the natural world is imperiled by human activity\, she would like her photography to show the grandeur of Mother Nature before it is gone.  She also constantly scrutinizes trees\, rock formations\, leaves\, sand (anything\, really) for interesting\, more abstract scenes from nature. Every photography adventure\, for her\, is an opportunity for a “personal best” photo. She works with Nikon equipment and a trusty Manfrotto tripod.  You can view some of her work at evalindalanyi.com. \n  \n    \n\nChuck Campbell:  A Shot in the Dark\nNote: This presentation has been rescheduled for April 23\, 2019 \nThis presentation is a compilation of outdoor images which were shot after sunset and before sunrise.  Most of the images were shot with a slow shutter speed to compensate for the lack of natural light.  And many of the images contain colorful artificial light and water reflections.  \n \nChuck Campbell is a long-time NVPS member and volunteer.  He enjoys the quiet solitude of shooting images long after others have gone home for the evening or before they wake up and get in the way of a good shot. When traveling\, Chuck always takes a tripod because he knows he will be taking many shots in the dark.  Unfortunately\, as he traveled across Europe and the U.S.\, he has missed many good meals with his wife as he waited for just the right blue-hour light.  With this presentation\, he will happily share those lonely\, hunger-induced images with you.\n

SUMMARY:Member's Gallery: "Digital" with Paula Neumann and "Prints" with Georgette Grossman
DESCRIPTION:Paula Neumann\n A Week in Normandy \nPaula’s interest in photography has developed over time. Paula was definitely more comfortable with a point and shoot camera until relatively recently. Her first experience with an SLR was as team photographer for her daughter’s summer and high school swim teams. From 2000-2010 she took 10’s of 1000’s of photos at meets. She learned some basic Photoshop skills and posted images on team websites and provided images for end of season slideshows. When her daughter headed off to college in 2010\, Paula decided that she needed to develop a serious hobby to fill the void at home. She took three photography classes at the art league in Alexandria over the next 2 years and has been hooked on photography ever since. \nPaula joined the NVPS in 2013 after she retired from her 26 year career as a pathologist at Inova Alexandria Hospital. Her years behind the microscope have trained her to look at things carefully and critically\, to notice patterns and details. Her love of the outdoors and travel have provided her with ample photographic opportunities. She enjoys photographing flowers\, landscapes\, and architecture. She has become more adept at post-processing and primarily does this in Lightroom. She is currently using a Canon 7D Mark II camera. She uses her images to make travel books\, calendars and photo cards and shares them online. NVPS continues to be a valuable resource for education and growth. She enters the monthly competitions with regularity and has received a variety of awards\, but mostly she enjoys learning from the critiques of both her own and other members’ images. Paula’s goals in photography include branching out into portraiture and abstract imaging\, learning to be more patient with bird photography and learning to be more creative in post-processing. \nHer digital presentation is titled “A Week in Normandy” and is a collection of images from a recent trip to Normandy\, France. Normandy is a photographer’s delight with its long and varied history\, quaint villages and half-timbered buildings\, its beautiful countryside with apple orchards\, pastures\, fields and farms\, and its spectacular coastline and beaches. \n\n  \n  \nGeorgette Grossman\nUnder the Tuscan Sky \nTake a tour of Tuscany through my photographs. The scenery is remarkable. Light and shadows play on the wheat-field landscapes giving them velvety contours. Clouds billow against the blue skies. Colorful laundry hangs out windows to dry. Poppies and olive trees mingle in the fields. Cypress trees line the driveways. \nThese images were taken in May 2018 while I was on a landscape workshop with John Barclay and Rad Drew. \nGeorgette’s journey in photography began 12 years ago when her granddaughter\, Ava\, was born. Not capturing the cute smiles she wanted\, she switched from a point’n’shoot to a DSLR (Nikon D80). She attended her first Nature Visions show at Meadowlark in 2007 and discovered there were camera clubs in the area! She joined NVPS in January 2008 and was hooked on photography as a hobby. She was the president of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society (NVPS) from 2014 to 2015. \nGeorgette advanced her photography skills by taking hands-on classes. Some of her instructors included John Gonsalves\, Eliot Cohen\, Corey Hilz\, Nikhil Bahr\, Josh Taylor\, Mike Moats\, Don Rosenberger\, and Denise Silva. By attending NVPS lectures\, workshops\, and field trips she believes her photography has evolved to a higher level. Participation in competition has helped to give her a critical eye when capturing and post-processing her images. She reads online columns daily to keep “up to date” on new camera equipment and software tips. Recently Georgette switched from a Nikon D7200 camera to a Fuji X-Pro2 and a Fuji X-T3 to lighten her load.  \nGeorgette captures moments she wants to remember. Her subjects include abstracts\, people\, places\, and nature\, but her favorite subject is flower close-ups and macros. Lately she is dabbling more with B/W images. \nSeeing her images in print completes the photography journey. Georgette has shown her images at  \n\nThe Art League in Alexandria\, VA\, \nthe Glen Echo Annual Labor Day Art Show\, \nthe ArtSpace Herndon Fine Art Photography Exhibit\, \nNature Visions annual exhibit\, and \nthe Annual Joseph Miller Abstract Photography Exhibit. \n\nFrom August–October\, 2018 she had a solo exhibit at Beanetics Coffee Roasters coffee shop in Annandale\, VA. It was entitled Under the Tuscan Sun. \nGeorgette’s images can be seen at http://pixels.com/profiles/georgette-grossman    \n  \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Member’s Gallery: Digital with Kevin Linde;  Prints with Kevin Egan
DESCRIPTION:I was born and raised in Johannesburg\, South Africa and moved to Canada in 1992 where I met my wonderful wife\, Debby. In 1998 we moved to Northern Virginia with our 2-year-old son\, Ryan. Our second son\, Jared\, was born in 1999 when we moved into our current house in Fairfax. My boys are now in college\, with one at the University of Alabama and the other at George Mason. We also have two dogs that are wonderful photography subjects. I currently work as a physical therapist at my own private clinic\, which I founded in 2003\, in Fairfax City. I became interested in photography about 13 years ago when I bought my first Canon DSLR. Prior to that I had a Pentax SLR\, which I owned for about 5 years prior to switching to digital. I learned the basics with this camera but was never that interested in photography. The change to digital provided instant feedback\, which allowed me to learn beyond the basics a lot faster. I also enjoyed the post processing which I am constantly learning to this day. I currently use Canon equipment that I have accumulated over the years. My favorite subject to shoot is motor racing\, which is influenced by my interest in the sport. Not far behind is anything else interesting to shoot. The great thing about photography is that you can take a photo of almost anything out there and make it something unique. I have been a member of NVPS for only one year but have enjoyed meeting some wonderful people and some great photographers. I enjoy sharing my photos but also enjoy seeing the great talent of others. I am not sure at this point in time where my photography may take me but until then I will continue to learn as much as I can and will never stop learning. \n   \n \n \n \n————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————\nKevin Egan \nKevin has been enjoying the art of photography since his dad allowed him to waste a few rolls of film with his old brownie camera many moons ago.  He was a very active photographer in high school and in the early years of college\, but putting himself through college proved an expensive ordeal and he was eventually forced to sell his camera and concentrate on school. \nThen an amazing thing happened – the digital sensor was created and the age of digital photography began.  Once the price of digital cameras came down\, and the sensors became better\, Kevin once again began to dabble in his photographic passion.  Somewhere around 2010\, Kevin began searching for a photo club that would afford him a chance to rub elbows with others with the same passion\, and he finally found a home here at NVPS! \nKevin loves to try to create digital art\, and although he loves to shoot rust and chrome\, his interests are not concentrated only in that area.  He loves to shoot waterfalls\, landscapes\, cityscapes\, and streetscapes. \nKevin shoots Canon and has done so for many years\, currently learning to make the most of his 5D Mark IV.   \nIn his real life\, Kevin works for US Customs and keeps the IT equipment working for their facilities overseas.  He hopes to be able to retire someday\, so that he can concentrate on the important stuff – like photography! \n \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Member’s Gallery: Digital – Steve Glintz – Print – Christine Tran
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glintz\nTwo Hour Images by Steve Glintz\nSteven graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology with a degree in Computer Science and currently works in Northern Virginia as a software engineer.  For fourteen years\, Steven has supported the U.S. Navy and its allies through the development of air defense simulations and trainers and modernizing tactical control systems on-board submarines.  For the past six years\, Steven has been supporting the intelligence community. \n\n \nSteven spends his free weekends with his Nikon D800e capturing landscape\, architecture\, street\, long exposure\, and wildlife images.  He also enjoys creating macro and other abstract images in his make shift studio at home.  Post processing involves a combination of Adobe Lightroom for cropping\, color\, and dynamic range corrections.  He also uses Photoshop for heavy lifting such as focus stacking\, photo stitching\, and the occasional elimination of unwanted distractions such as dust spots.\n \nSteven has been a member of NVPS for 8 years.  During that time\, he has served the club in various capacities ranging from web maintenance\, digital competition preparation\, backup laptop operator\, and lending a helping hand at every meeting.  Besides attending programs and competitions at NVPS\, outside influences such as periodicals published by Digital Photographer and Digital Camera World as well as Bryan Peterson’s Understanding Exposure and Learning to See Creatively and Freeman Patterson’s Photographing the World Around You have tutored him through his early years.\n \nLast year\, Steven completed his first portfolio on Washington’s National Cathedral.  Two years prior to that\, Steven captured images of Western Ireland and the hilltowns of central Italy and Venice.  Fortunately\, Steven’s presentation demonstrates the wide variety of photographic opportunities available to local residents of the Washington metropolitan area who do not need to spend a lot of money on travel.  No matter your interest\, budding photographers are guaranteed a winning image in less than a two hour drive.\n \n\n \n \nLike Old Cheese and Wine by Christine Tran\n\n\nPeople like to take pictures of beautiful flowers and they tend to forget the wilted and droopy ones. To Christine each stage of the life cycle has it’s own beauty. These are the ” mature” flowers through her lens.\n \nAs an amateur photographer\, Christine started photography in 2014 with a Canon 70D. She has a particular fascination for macro and landscape photography. She is currently shooting with a Canon 5D Mark III and just bought a Fuji XT-2 for her upcoming trip to Vietnam in October. Christine joined NVPS in  February 2015.
