The Lakewood Ranch Digital Photography Club is for anyone who has a digital camera and wants to produce quality images and or videos, instead of ordinary snapshots or typical home movies. Our membership includes those just starting out in photography as a hobby, all the way to the very experienced and well published professional photographers. We offer monthly meetings designed for all levels of photographic understanding.
We offer training which includes class instruction on how to get the most from your camera, compositions and how to use your computer for post processing. We also have many focus groups which offer learning and critiquing in specific areas such as landscape, portrait, macro and, more recently, video and black & white photography. We also participate in numerous, friendly nearby photographic competitions.
Visitors and guests are welcome at regular monthly meetings, usually on the third Wednesday of each month. Click on "CALENDAR" in menu above to find the next meeting date.
Call for Submissions for the Annual Quad Print Competition
Each year, four local photography clubs (Sarasota Camera Club, Sun City Camera Club, Digital Photo Artists and Lakewood Ranch Digital Photography Club) participate in the Quad Print Competition.
To be well represented at the competition, LWRDPC needs fifteen prints for the color category and ten prints for the monochromatic category. Prints may be any size, but MUST be mounted on 16"x20" white or black foam core. 16"x20" prints are preferred.
Focus Group outing images, and information and questions about upcoming trips such as meeting places, dinner plans and car pooling arrangements. Also a good place to propose venues for outings, and to request or provide mentoring.
All about cameras, post processing techniques and software, critiques of images, classes and requests for training, and any other concerns on photography.
