GNPA Announces Photography Competition

The Georgia Nature Photographers’ Association (GNPA)—Central Region will hold a photography competition when they meet on Tuesday, September 18, 2012, at 6:30 p.m. at the J. Joel Edwards Library, 7077 South Highway 19, in Zebulon.

All photographers are invited to submit images that fit the theme “Georgia’s Fauna (Animals) and Flora (Plants).” Images must be brought to the library between 5:30 and 6:30 p.m. on the day of the meeting.

While the entries are being judged by Todd Sparger (President of GNPA), all exhibitors will attend a slideshow featuring images taken by Chris Bryson (President of the Middle Georgia Camera Club (www.mgcc.ws) in Macon) during a recent trip to Wyoming. Then, Todd Sparger will present ribbons for the winning images. He will also speak to the attendees about GNPA.

Photographers of all skill levels are invited to attend the meeting, whether or not they choose to submit images for the competition. The Central Region Chapter of the GNPA meets the third Tuesday in each month and welcomes all nature photographers.
