The group of photographers are similar in many ways. They are always looking for the next great place for a striking nature image, they put in the time to get the perfect light, and they seek out adverse weather or interesting creatures. But they each take a different approach. Some join other shooters to capture images and critique each otherâs work. Others prefer to work, edit and learn on their own.
I recently posed questions to seven photographers who are among the talented locals who won awards in the 2020 Scenic Virginia photo contest. They all do what it takes to create art.
