    logo_sedonacameraclubSedona AZ (February 6, 2020) – Professional photographer Pam Taylor will present at the meeting of the Sedona Camera Club starting at 6 p.m. on Monday, February 24th, at the Christ Lutheran Church, 25 Chapel Rd, Sedona.  Doors open at 5:30.

    Pam Taylor is a much-published, well-travelled freelance editorial photographer who today focuses on photography as a creative art.  She will kickoff the meeting by highlighting her photographic odyssey beginning as a young, untrained photojournalist documenting international conflict in Central America.  For decades she lived and travelled overseas to publish her work in newspapers, magazines, as well as books. Closer to home she produced  numerous social justice videos, as well as promotional videos for artists.

    Several years ago she rejected documentary style to explore more artistic ways of shooting.  She now plays with less traditional equipment such as infra red and underwater cameras, as well as artistic lenses. In rebellion against the photojournalism ethic of not altering a photograph, she now enjoys enhancing images using Photoshop and other digital programs.

    After a break, Taylor will delve into an in-depth exploration of creativity.  She will talk about what creativity is, inspiration, and challenges.  She’ll go over the craft of  creative options while taking photos.  And she’ll look at ways to playfully develop inspiration and vision.  Taylor will take us behind the scenes on  several photo shoots to show her process.   Also, she will deconstruct post-processing several photos to illustrate how she enhances or creates new images.  The effect is an inspirational rally cry for photographers to try new experiences and ways of shooting.   www.pamtaylormultimedia.com

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
