Thank you to Jason Costa for deciding to do the first all photography show at The Casselberry Art House and for choosing our club to provide the art. Thank you to the members who are participating in "What We See." We had a great turnout for the reception, despite the closed road and the rain, and received many favorable comments and inquiries about purchasing several of our pieces.
With a unique space and wide range of subjects, styles and sizes of photographs it took a great curator to take all the pieces and make them work together. Thank you once again Kellie for jumping in and helping us out. We truly could not have done it without you. This was by far the biggest exhibit we've put together and it wouldn't have come together without the assistance of Scott and Frederic. It would take an entire newsletter to detail all they did to help prepare for the show. Thank you both for your help, advice and reassurance in putting the show together.
We also covered our first event of the year by shooting the parade and celebration on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Thank you Greg, Margie, Michael S, Rich P and Frederic for being there. The photo with this column is from the celebration and taken by Margie Sloane. While I know it is very small in the newsletter, I chose it because it shows thinking outside the box to get interesting photos. Margie actually climbed up in the playground equipment and took some great photos of the kids playing, but she also took advantage of her location to take this "aerial" shot of part of the crowd, the stage and your's truly taking photos from a more conventional spot. So please come to an event, think outside your box and find a new way to take some great photos to share.
Finally, membership renewals are due for most of us. Please be sure to either renew at a meeting, by mail or by PayPal on our website.

CITY HALL GALLERY
CALL FOR ENTRIES - THEME - OPEN
|
|
The theme for the next round of photos for the City Hall Gallery is open and the deadline for submissions is midnight, March 22, 2017. You may submit up to five photos taken of any subject in any location (G rated please). They must have been taken since March 22, 2015. We will be choosing five new photos for City Hall. The five oldest photos in City Hall will be moved to the Annex building to replace five of the photos currently there. Their three favorite photos, from among the current group hanging, will remain in the annex until the next change.
The submissions will be handled a little differently this time. Please email the club that you wish to participate and you will be provided a link to a dropbox folder for your photos. Do not create a dropbox folder yourself to submit photos. All files submitted should be suitable for printing a 16 x 20 print. You will only be able to see your photos, you will not be able to see the other submissions until after the submission deadline. All submitted photos will be renamed to be anonymous and submitted to our curator for the selection process. You will receive a confirmation email after the photos are renamed and submitted so you can verify they have all been provided to the curator. Once the selection process is completed all submissions will be placed into a nonpublic folder for everyone to see. If your photograph is chosen there will be a $50.00 charge for printing and framing your photograph. All photos will be printed by the club for a consistent appearance.
