  • Programs: Seeing Out of the Box: Abstract Photography Opportunities in the DC Area with E. David Luria

    Programs

    Put your thumb and forefinger together into a small circle, hold it up to one eye, close the other eye. Look through that circle: that’s how your camera lens sees the world, just a small, tight area, no peripheral vision.

    And it is also the “secret sauce” of abstract photography technique, which is the subject of E. David Luria’s presentation on September 7 entitled “Seeing Out of the Box: Abstract Photography Opportunities in the DC Area”.

  • Education & Training – “That is So Old” by Ginger Werz-Petricka

    Education & Training

    The club competition in January will have the theme of “Old”. For September, long time club member, Ginger Werz-Petricka will address some of the possibilities for meeting the criteria of the theme.

    Old (Competition Date: January 18, 2022): People, places, or objects that are showing their age. Helpful definitions:

    Having lived for a long time; no longer young.
    Made or built long ago.
    The hands, eyes, faces of older people are classic examples. Dilapidated barns, antique cars or trucks are good examples. No dead, or dying, flowers or plants; in their relative life span they are old, but it defeats the purpose of this theme.
