Each month our members get an assignment to shoot. Each member shoots an image matching that month's theme and submits it to the club's email address (
[email protected]
) a week before the meeting date. Images may be taken up to 90 days in advance of that month's meeting. The assignment images are compiled into a gallery and put on our website; then members are asked to vote via email on their favorite image. The winner is announced the following week at the monthly meeting and will receive a free 16x20 print from
Digital Pro Lab
in San Antonio. The winning image is displayed on our home page until the next month. At the meeting, we view the images on a projection screen. Each photographer may offer their thoughts on their artistic process and get feedback and constructive criticism from the other members.
Members are also invited to submit up to two additional images: one in color and one in black and white. These may be from your archives and do not need to match the monthly assignment theme. All images will be presented at our monthly meeting where you will have a chance to get feedback on your image(s) as well as provide your thoughts on others' image(s).
At the end of the year, all of the winning images from each month will be voted upon and a Photo of the Year will be chosen. The yearly winner will have their dues paid and have their image displayed on our home page for the following year.
