It is very gratifying to us when our participants make beautiful
images during our photo adventures. It is a bonus when our alumni share their successes with us.
Sometimes, they sell prints,
win awards,
get juried into shows, have exhibitions, and/or are published in magazines with
photographs either that they created in our workshops or that are a direct
result of their workshop experience with us.
Just to the right, you'll see a prize-winning image that one of our participants
sent to us. For more award-winning student photographs, click on the links below.
And for many of you alumni who have not yet sent us any, please do so, and we
will try to include those that were made in our workshops in our Student Winners gallery. The specifications are below the gallery links. We will try to include the very best of the best on the home page and here to the right on a rotation basis. Think of it as a juried show!
