We kicked off this month’s events on Wednesday, July 1st with a lively edition of Photo Of The Month. Next up, on Wednesday, July 8th, French landscape, nature and travel photographer, Rémi Bergougnoux, will lead us on a visual journey across France. He will take us to the dramatic cliffs of Normandy, the wonders of the Loire Valley, and the wild wetlands of the Camargue. Rémi’s presentation will combine the culture, history, and breathtaking landscapes of beautiful and much-loved France.

On Wednesday, July 15th at 6:00 - 7:30 pm, we will have an Opening Reception for our new exhibition, Landscapes and Landmarks: America at 250. The curators, Nina Kling, Renate Aller and Samuel Vovsi, selected 25 images from over 230 club member submissions for this exhibit celebrating the landscapes, landmarks, and historic places that shape our nation's visual identity. Please join us for this special event at the Princeton Public Library, 65 Witherspoon St, Princeton, NJ 08542.
On Wednesday, July 22nd, we will gather at D&R Greenway, One Preservation Place, Princeton, NJ 08540 for our Monthly In-Person Meeting. The topic for this meeting will be “Then & Now: A Photographic Journey.” All participants will be invited to share TWO photographs: ONE older photograph (from years or even decades ago) and ONE recent photograph. The photographer will describe how their vision, technique, interests, and approach have evolved over the years. There will be time for audience observations and discussion. Thanks to Mike Alfano for suggesting this topic! Many thanks also to Anita Bhala, who has graciously agreed to lead our in-person meetings at D&R Greenway going forward. Anita will continue to experiment with interactive and engaging formats for these meetings. Please contact her at anitabhala@aol.com with any suggestions or comments.
