Anybody have any experience with photo clubs? I've occasionally wondered about them, but I've never found one near where I live, and I don't know anybody who attends the ones in the region. I enjoy the community here (and elsewhere on-line) but think I would like a "face-to-face" group. Any...

Sometimes it is simple, other times I struggle . And I suspect I’ve chosen the wrong category quite a few times. I posted 2x photos today, taken in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Both are b&w (in camera), portrait orientation nature shots. So what’s the “right” category. Nature...

Does anybody know when to expect finalists to start coming out? Or when they're done with Editor's Picks? I've got a 16/19 entries with EP, but nothing else yet. THANKS

Is there a way to search photos to find the latest from a specific member? For example, if someone leaves me a comment, I can click on their name and it will take me to their gallery page. But selecting individual photos does NOT give me an opportunity to "comment back" and appreciate their...

We made a trip to Missouri Botanical Garden a couple of days ago. Nice visit, nice day, but we're still on the front end of spring. I got to thinking about how much things will be changing through spring into summer and then autumn. Which got me thinking about doing a series of shots from...

Does any body else track their Better Photo entries? I have a spreadsheet, it is interesting to look back month-to-month and year-to-year to see how active I am, and how "successful. For 2023 I entered 132 photos, about 2.5/week. Of those, I had no First Place, 5 second place, and 21...

I was realizing it's been a while since I introduced myself, or perhaps re-introduced myself, So here goes. I'm Larry Lawhead, and I'm in my second stint here at Better Photo. I was here back in the 2003-2009 time frame, but left for a while because life intruded. I've been back since late...

I recently discovered a YouTube photography channel that I'm really enjoying: "The Photographic Eye". Really resonates with me. Not so much technical discussion, but more on the "whys" and finding your passion. here's a link to latest episode: Anybody else have recommendations for these...

With the "two years for the price of one" sale going on (thanks Jim!) I'm looking at upgrading. Anybody have experience with the web sites? What's the practical difference between a Deluxe web site (at Silver level) and Pro (at Gold). Trying to figure the best direction to go. THANKS!
