July 2008 Photo Critique - Photographers Choice

Club Photo Exhibit Opportunity

We have the opportunity as a Club, to put on a photo show for the month of September
at the Coffee Cabin in Alpine, Wyoming.

Christopher Balmer has been displaying his work there for about 1 year, and has sold 28 images.

I need to know if you are interested by Aug 12th. (This will be the absolute deadline)

There is room for 30 images. The images need to be ready to display. Image sizes must be bigger than 8x10 and no larger than 16x24

If you have images ready, bring them to the meeting next Thursday night.

We will determine how many images per photographer by the number of people that reply to me by the deadline.

There will be a $20.00 exibition fee per photographer to cover the cost of advertising, flyers, and gas to get the images to Alpine and
maintain the show.

Please feel free to call Christopher if you have any questions.
