May Competition Images – Early submission Required – Deadline Sunday April 16th
This is the call for photographs for the May meeting of The Wild Rivers Photography Club. It is earlier than normal, because the photos will be judged by members of the Photographic Society of America (PSA), and they need some additional time. As usual, we will meet at The Newman United Methodist Church, 132 NE B Street, Grants Pass, OR 97526 on May 3, at 7:00 pm.
As your projectionist, I am responsible for collecting the electronic photos you submit, and putting them together as a slide show for the competition. I hope many members decide to participate. We are looking forward to this opportunity to continue honing our photographic skills.
