Artistic Nature Group
Kathy Murphy, Group Leader
(available to members only)
Due to the recent change restricting nature images in the General Category of digital competitions, we no longer have an artistic outlet for nature photography. Pure nature photography is highly restrictive and does not allow composites, major lighting changes, blurring backgrounds or including “hand of man” components. Images must be realistic, bordering on documentary images.
Starting in November, we will trial a new special interest group that will encourage artistic expression of nature images. No rules or restrictions. It will be a meeting of like-minded nature photographers who wish to apply creative or artistic expressions of nature. If competition is important to you, we encourage you to enter these images in print competitions.
The goal is to trial this group for a year to determine the level of interest. If popular, we may consider adding this category to future digital competitions.
Up to 3 digital images (in proper format) per person should be submitted to Kathy Murphy by email (kmthephotographer@gmail.com) by the Monday before the meeting. Prints are also welcome and should be brought to the meeting with notification to Kathy as above.
I look forward to seeing you on Wednesday, November 4 for the first meeting and monthly thereafter on the 2nd Wednesday of the month.
