August! - The Dog Days of Summer are here! Hydrate and get out there and photograph! This month brings us to our third of four, Digital Photographic Competitions for the year! Get your submissions ready! We head off into the Wild Blue Yonder to photograph an Air Show and we will continue our monthly series of "Workshop Wednesdays"! Sprinkle in a few image reviews and we have quite a month planned.
 

PPLAC Outing - On Saturday, August 15th, we bring our best tracking and panning practices to the Wings Over Camarillo Air Show! This is an annual photo-favorite and we hope you will join us! There is a lot to see on the ground as well as in the air! Reserve you tickets ahead of time.

​

PPLAC Workshop Wednesdays - On Wednesday, August 19th, two of our members will discuss how they created their DPC awarded images (or possibly about a different photo subject)! It's a behind-the-scenes experience where we learn the nuts and bolts of camera craft and developing the image.

​

PPLAC Digital Photographic Competition (DPC) - On Thursday, August 27th, we hold our 3rd DPC of 2026! The submission period starts on the 1st and runs to Sunday the 16th. That should give you time to perfect your images! There is a lot of information above under the "Photo Competition" tab including the rules and how to make a mat. Click HERE for the Zoom link on the 27th.

Special Note on how to watch the competition on this night: The above Zoom link will be like a normal General Meeting for PPLAC business, news and DPC judge introductions. When the DPC begins, however, this Zoom link will be for audio only! To watch, you must go to the printcompetition.com website. The detailed instructions are in the announcement below.
