Selected participant images will be discussed in depth, offering insight into composition, mood, focus, and creative decision-making. Whether you submit an image or attend to observe, you’ll gain inspiration and practical ideas you can apply to your own work.

Plan a trip to Longwood Gardens in March to photograph the Himalayan Blue Poppies. They only bloom for a couple weeks so contact the gardens for updates on the bloom. Typically, it's in mid-March. Longwood Gardens is in Kennett Square, about 30 miles southwest of Philly, PA. One of my fav flowers to shoot.
