Hurry Hurry

Vol. 1. No. 34

The deadline for Worldwide Photo Walk participants to submit competition images is July 25, 2009 at 11:59 PM EDT. So, what are you waiting for? Just log into your respective Walk page and upload your two (2) images before it's too late. Judging by the images already uploaded to the LensCapture Flickr Group by our Walk members, I'm puzzled you haven't all submitted contest photos to our WorldWide Photo Walk site. Beginners to advanced amateurs to working pros - you all have a chance to compete and win. Don't talk yourself out of the running. Hurry hurry, time's running out.

Scott Kelby posted a great FAQ, in classic Kelby-style, that might answer some of your photo contest questions. It should be read by all involved.

I will be announcing the details of the upcoming LensCapture August Photo Walk on Sunday right here on the blog. I appreciate all the emails inquiring about this event. Thanks.

Vol. 1 No. 33

WWFW_2009-017

I had a great time yesterday leading a group of almost 40 photographers through the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens while participating in the 2nd Annual Worldwide Photo Walk. We shared ideas and tips, walked and photographed the gorgeous surroundings. I have uploaded some of my favorite images to the LensCapture Flicker Group. If you participated in this walk, please join the group and upload some of your images to share.

Since we had such a great time, I will be leading another photo walk on August 16 to the High Line in Manhattan. Check back here on the LensCapture blog for the details.

Special Note: Individuals who registered and participated in the Scott Kelby 2nd Annual Photo Walk must remember to upload their best one to two images, by the July 25th deadline, on to the Worldwide Photo Walk website to be eligible to compete for prizes. Good Luck.

Happy New Year

Well, I fulfilled a New Year's resolution by finally starting this blog. I have been meaning to embark on this project for quite some time now. The goal of this endeavor is very simple - to share our photo experiences and ideas. Through this sharing, our photo community grows. Snapshooters, amateurs, enthusiasts and professional photographers can all contribute to the cause.

That's the main drive behind Lens-Capture. To see what you see, how you see it, and the resulting images. To help in this, I've created a LensCapture Flickr Group so we can share our images and learn from each other's point of view. Through this venue, we can help each other grow through productive critiques of our collective work.

Some of the other things I would like to accomplish are providing tips and tricks, product and gear reviews, how-to's, and staging some entertaining photo-walks. Photo-walks and meetups are a great way to interact and discover great photo opportunities. Living in one of the greatest cities ( I am entitled to my opinion) offers a wealth of subject matter. From the striking cityscapes, to beautiful botanical gardens, to the aquarium and a world-class zoo, potential subject matter abounds. Besides these locations, I plan to go off the beaten path to the little known spots in the area. Finding a photo op is only part of the adventure, the other is sharing the experiences.

So welcome to our new community.
