Learn and Grow
By JarieLyn Robbins
Have you ever thought
about taking your photography skills to a higher level but didn’t know where to
begin?
If you are new to the
Nevada Camera Club, Congratulations!
You have taken the
first step to becoming a better photographer.
Those who have been
members for a while know the value of attending program meetings, competitions,
field trips and workshops.
They are already reaping
the benefits.
If you don’t believe
me, just look at the quality of photos that are being entered every month.
Nevada Camera Club is
a wonderful place to learn and grow.
In addition to the
Nevada Camera Club there are many resources available to photographers of all
skill levels.
If you are a student or prospective student
who dreams of a successful career in photography, there is a wonderful on-line
resource that has an abundance of information about available photography
programs.
This web site allows
you to browse by school type, category, type of degree and by state.
There is also a
comprehensive guide to Professional Photographer Associations.
The reason I endorse
this website is because it also lists an array of competitions that you can
enter.
For example, there is
a current photography contest that is sponsored by Army Magazine which is open
to amateur and professional photographers.
First prize is $500.00 and second prize is
$300.00.
So, even if you
aren’t interested in getting a photography degree, it’s worth a browse.
It’s not just for
students and prospective students.
It’s for any photographer
who wants to learn and grow no matter what your skill level.
You might find an
international or local association that you never knew existed, or you might
find a photography competition that is screaming your name.
What have you got to
lose?
