Are you missing regular competition for your images? If so, you will be able to get your fix at our end of the year competition, Saturday, November 15. Mark your calendars now.

Although you may simply submit your images, you are encouraged to attend the competition which will be judged by outside officials. Three judges will be assigned for each category. All images will be projected. No comments from judges, just viewing and ranking. This event will be a feast for your eyes!

Here is more information.

There’s an interesting essay on the Luminous Landscape website.

Bernard Languillier says, “Photography as we have known it, and fine art photography in particular, has only just started a very profound transformation. The seemingly innocent move from film to digital sensors did trigger an irreversible chain of fundamental paradigm shifts that we are only starting to understand.

Out of those many foreseeable consequences, the one that I find most disturbing is the death of Paper.”

Food for thought.

Members may bring up to six images of fall color taken in California. Tell us details of your shoot.

Everyone is welcome.
