The Digital Photographic Society is focused on artistic vision in photography, developing skills needed to advance that vision and seeking the best methodology for presenting the final image. We come together once a month to share images and to explore our successes and possible improvements in an encouraging environment. Our members range from beginners to advanced amateurs to artists striving for public success. The bonding element is the photographic image and the tools that make it happen. Friendly competition and sharing the how-to's are critical to what we are as a club. You don't have to know much to start - you only have to have the desire to try something new. What makes us different is the desire to develop an artistic vision and expand our skills with the newest digital darkroom tools. You won't be required to leap mountains or create masterpieces, but you will learn and have an opportunity to share your images in a welcoming environment.For club information please visit our Web Site at Digital Photographic Society.
