MEETING: Zoom

Due to schedule issues with our judge, the May Competition Results has been moved to June 29, 2023. Turn in deadline has been extended two weeks to midnight 5/19/2023

We’ll gather via Zoom at 7 pm for informal discussion and then start the formal meeting at 7:30, for monthly competition results.

This month’s topic is "After Dark". "Photography" is a modern word construction literally meaning "writing with light". So, naturally, we gravitate to those times of the day when our sun illuminates -- giving ample light for a variety of imaging. But, that's only half of our 24 hour day. This topic encourages us to venture out and use creative techniques to capture existing natural and artificial light and their unexpected illumination of the world around us.

About our judge Karen Haberberg:

I am an NYC based photographer and published author specializing in portraiture and the documentation of the human condition.

Throughout my career, I have been drawn to unearthing with my lens, an authentic glimpse into a person’s way of life, their natural way of being. My intuition and ability to connect with my subjects comes from a sense of my own vulnerability, my allowing myself to be seen, as I am. I think it naturally draws my subjects to me as I hold space for them to best reveal their truest version of themselves.
