The January 18, 2022 LPA competition is for Photojournalism General. All members are encouraged to enter your favorite PJ images!
Our judge is going to be Kevin Karzin, the president of Santa Clarita Valley Photographers Association and a seasoned photojournalist.
Please make sure to read the rules regarding photojournalism entries. This is a reality-based competition, which means that few modifications are allowed. The guidelines include no manipulating the image other than cropping, straightening, dodging (lightening), and burning (darkening). You can do basic adjustments to the image (like straighten the horizon) so it looks like the image the photographer saw when they took the picture.
The Photojournalism definition can be found on the LPA website at https://www.lpaphotography.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/competitions/classdefinitions

This workshop will be an in-person photo opportunity at the Prime Desert Woodland Preserve in Lancaster. Bring your cameras and long lenses for birds, rabbits and perhaps even a coyote! This is a great way to gain knowledge from fellow photographers on proper settings, techniques, etc. A tripod will help you to be able to shoot after sunset.
Location: 43201 35th St W, Lancaster, CA - Prime Desert Woodland Preserve.
Hoping for a great sunset! Don't forget your wide-angle lens for that!
Our theme will be Flowers (including Wildflowers). The definition is: Single or multiple blossoms of one or more plants, including Desert Wildflowers. This is not a reality-based class, so creative images are acceptable.
The competition is now open for entries. Members may enter up to 3 images for the $5.00 entry fee. The deadline for members to upload entries will be October 12th at 11:59 p.m.
After teaching several Zoom Flower Photography classes, she wanted a way to stay in touch with students. Thus “Debbie’s Flower Photography FaceBook Group” was created. It now has over 300 members…and growing. It’s a community where we share not only photos, but what we’ve learned as well. It’s a positive support group for photography addicts.
