Blue Cloth Flower |
We had the Annual Photo Contest at the Linn Area Photography Club. The judge was the Superintendent of the Photography Salon for the Iowa State Fair. I learned a lot today - while he was judging a lot of folks had their cameras and were there to learn more about them - the object being to get out of the "automatic mode" and to use the camera to create photographs not snapshots. A photographer's goal is to show "...the world has it has never been seen..."
We practiced bracketing and macro shots (the blue cloth flower).
Back to the contest - I received a Third Place in the "Scenery/Landscape" category and an "Honorable Mention" in the Portrait category.
