Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n

A while ago I started our\u00a0Online Photo Program<\/a>. Every month we offered a new challenge with support and critique. Members loved it…
\nWe’re looking for more members for the new, free format!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Online<\/a>

Portraits
\u00a9 Sara Hendrix<\/p><\/div>\n

With some changes in direction over the last couple of years, (read past blog posts ) I’ve turned the program into a\u00a0small, community managed, friendly, free, monthly photo challenge based on a private group on Facebook’s platform.<\/p>\n

\"Online<\/a>

Online Photo Program
Portrait and Photojournalism Challenges – “Cooling off on a hot day behind the arena…”<\/p><\/div>\n

Senior members of the group take turns developing the monthly challenge and posting links and information pertaining to the month’s photo adventure. Members offer real critique and questions that guide the discussions. I offer support, critique and tips to the group.<\/p>\n

The group wants more members!<\/strong><\/em> We’re looking to attract supportive photo people of all levels willing to participate, contribute and support the community as we all try to interpret the month’s challenges. It’s not a competition. And members are looking for genuine feedback rather than praise.<\/p>\n

\"Online<\/a>

Night Time Shooting
\u00a9 Christine Payant<\/p><\/div>\n

What members have said:
\n\u2022 ”\u00a0I really enjoy the positive and constructive feedback. I know when posting that those who participate are likely just like me, wanting to learn and grow. The group has typically been diverse, with people of varying levels of experience which has been\u00a0great to push me to try different things. I realize that I have some \u00a8Harryisms\u00a8 that come to mind: \u00a8get closer\u00a8, \u00a8what are you exposing for?\u00a8, \u00a8triangles\u00a8, etc.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

\"Motion<\/a>

Motion in Landscapes
\u00a9 Al Garner<\/p><\/div>\n

\u2022 “The\u00a0program\u00a0challenges me to get out there and photograph improving my skills as a photographer. It provides some focus. Without it, I would probably not photograph as much and I would not learn and grow as a photographer. It has helped me tremendously and gets me out there shooting and enjoying life!<\/em>”<\/p>\n

\"Landscapes<\/a>

Landscapes and Sunsets \u00a9 Maisie Ismail<\/p><\/div>\n

\u2022 “…\u00a0having the close group to help out and provide critique in a “safe” environment really makes a difference. It helps get over the shyness of…<\/em> ‘maybe this is not good enough to post.’ What a great group to belong to and get great feedback! Thanks Harry and everyone!<\/em>”<\/p>\n

To join the group<\/em><\/strong> you need to request to join the group and\u00a0befriend me<\/a>\u00a0on Facebook so I can add you to the Facebook group.<\/p>\n

Hope to see you on the other side!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
