Prints with Lea Schlosser<\/h1>\n

Lea’s introduction to photography came in middle school when she had to choose between taking home economics or media arts. \u00a0So naturally she chose media arts and was hooked. \u00a0She found it more enjoyable to spend the school day outside taking pictures of her friends than sitting inside a stuffy classroom.<\/p>\n

In high school, Lea blew her first paycheck on a Pentax P3 film camera. \u00a0Several years later Lea’s dad encouraged her to go digital.\u00a0 She refused, as her film camera worked just fine.\u00a0 So he bought her one.\u00a0 Again, Lea was hooked and used that camera until a fateful water balloon fight with her brother ruined her little Sony digital. \u00a0She then took the plunge and upgraded to a more serious digital camera and eventually a DSLR.<\/p>\n

Over the years Lea has mainly taken pictures of family, friends and when traveling. \u00a0However, shortly before joining NVPS in 2010, she started to become more serious about photography and expanded her subject matter. \u00a0Her print presentation will include abstract pictures taken over the last few years. \u00a0Most of the images were taken on her tabletop setup using a lightbox. \u00a0However, there are a few “found” abstracts.<\/p>\n

Digital with Patricia Deege\"Patricia<\/a><\/h1>\n

Patricia has been a member of NVPS for at least ten years. She began serious photography in 1995 when she joined the Vienna Photographic Society and took photography courses with Fairfax County Continuing Education. She currently considers herself a very serious amateur. Primarily Patricia likes to shoot nature, but will attempt any kind of photography and has recently experimented with infrared and making video clips for the first time with her latest Nikon camera.\u00a0 She uses Nikon digital equipment, a D7000, a D200 as backup, and a D70 converted for infrared. Patricia also has a small Panasonic point and shoot with a great Leica lens.<\/p>\n

Patricia worked for nine years in the International Monetary Fund as an Administrative Assistant in their Asian Department. \u00a0She retired in 1987 to get married and moved to California for three years. On returning to Virginia, now with three children, she subsequently worked many jobs for temporary companies and in the Community Liason Office of the U.S. Embassy in Cairo where she and her family were stationed for four years with the Agency for International Development. \u00a0Her family has now expanded to include three wonderful daughters-in-law and six grandchildren.<\/p>\n

Patricia’s photographic goals are simple; to continue improving her craft, to enjoy the photographic journey– wherever it may lead her, and to share her love of this fascinating hobby with anyone who cares to look at her work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
