On Wednesday, March 10, at 7 pm, Martin Heavner will be doing a "twist" on our annual critique of images. Traditionally, the March meeting has been devoted to a critique of member images, primarily because in April, we open up the entry period for our annual Frederick Camera Clique juried exhibition; but there were always so many images and so much to say, that it tended to be a bit overwhelming. Hence the "twist." The photos that members are encouraged to submit for critique are those that you may be considering for entering into a juried exhibit or competition. By hearing a review of your images with this purpose in mind, you will have time to do some new edits, consider some alternative images, or be assured that your image is ready for entry. Before the critique, will Martin will tell us about a few “lessons learned" before opening the topic up for discussion and Q&A, and then go right into the critique session.
Martin Heavner has won dozens of awards at local, regional, and national photo exhibits. He also has exhibited his work at galleries throughout the region, most recently with three prints juried into the 2021 Cumberland Valley Photo Show in Hagerstown and a two-artist show at Frostburg State University in September 2020. He frequently judges photography competitions, including monthly and year-end competitions at the North Bethesda Camera Club, Baltimore Camera Club, Rossmoor Camera Club, Gaithersburg Camera Club, and Silver Spring Camera Club. He is a member and past president of the Frederick Camera Clique and currently is chairman of the Photography Committee of the Allegany Arts Council in Cumberland, MD, where he helps to organize the annual Allegany National Photography Competition and Exhibition. His work can be seen at his website, www.HeavnerPhoto.com, and at his Instagram account.
