The theme of the week is SPORTS

January 28, 2013 Posted by administrator

The Focus Camera Weekly Photo Contest has begun! In honor of the super bowl, we chose SPORTS to be the first theme of the week.

To submit a photo, post it to our Facebook page! If you do not have a Facebook, you can email photos to contests@focuscamera.com. You do not need to be a professional to submit a photo, we would love to see photos of all kinds and qualities. We agree with Ken Rockwell when he said  “No matter how advanced your camera you still need to be responsible for getting it to the right place at the right time and pointing it in the right direction to get the photo you want.” So, in short, Get creative! We really hope our contest inspires you to go out and take new photos, but if you have an older one that fits the bill that works too. However, all photos MUST be your photos.

Official Rules:

1. Must “like” focus camera on Facebook. If you are not on the Facebook, you can subscribe to our email newsletter here: https://www.focuscamera.com/customer/account/create by checking the box.

2. Photos must be family friendly.

3. The photos you submit must be your own photographs, taken and owned by you.

4. Three submissions per person, per week.

5. Photos will be accepted for the appropriate theme until Monday at 10am.

Last night FocusCameraTV attended the opening reception of Paulette Tavormina’s photgraphy exhibition: Natura Morta at the Robert Mann Gallery in Chelsea. As you can see from our close up photo on the far left, the only thing that is richer than the color in these photographs is the details. We could have stood for an hour at each one, finding more and more secrets of a hidden ladybug or stray leaf. But, we were on a mission to make a video, and we were very happy to talk to many enthusiastic gallery attendees, Jeffrey Kane from the company that printed the photographs, and Paulette Tavormina herself!  We would like to thank everyone we interviewed for being so gracious and eloquent.

Our video coverage of the event should be posted early next week, so check back to the Blog, Facebook, and Youtube! We also highly recommend you go and see these enchanting photographs with your own eyes at the Robert Mann Gallery:  http://www.robertmann.com/index.html
