Calling All Photophiles!

+

In order for this to work, I need your input, opinions, tips!

Do you know of a new gallery or show opening soon in the DC region?

Is there a photographer who deserves some attention?  Are you a photographer who would like to be recognized?

Are there any events that are photo-worthy coming up?

Please, either submit your comments or feel free to shoot me an email:  foto.maven@gmail.com.

I want to hear from you and any news is quite helpful, in my mind.

Thank you.

Sunday Washington Post Magazine Puzzles

+

This page will be a spot for me to hold polls on a regular basis.  Some of the polls will be lighthearted and fun, and sometimes they will be a little more serious, but will always revolve around at least one aspect of photography.  So, to kickstart the poll page, I ask you this:

If you are a Sunday Washington Post Magazine reader or subscriber, which puzzle do you tackle first?  The crossword?  The photo puzzle?

revealing the best yet to come

+

From intimate spaces such as Hillyer to large galleries like the Corcoran, Washington, DC provides a bevy of spotlights on the photography arts.  As there are numerous big names behind the camera, there are a multitude of new photographers that pound the pavement everyday just looking to get their start.  I believe that among these fresh eyes are some specific incredible talent with skills comparable to the more experienced and popular professionals.  Diamonds in the rough, they don't just have what it takes to shoot a great image, they know how to compose an original.

I want this blog to show off this fresh unknown talent, while serving as a reference for all that is good photography in DC, big names or not.  Your input, opinions, and hot tips are important to this process, so I encourage all emails and comments.

I assure you, while the arts are fantastic in DC, the best is yet to come!
