Pages: 1 ... 2 3 4 5Back to the Roots (4th August, 2010)
Since its foundation in 2005, LH went through couple of significant changes in the way we operate. From a little private group of 8 having small talks about landscape photography virtually and during our workshops or trips, we opened up our public gallery back in 2006 which attracted quite a few talented photographers from all over the world to join. The number of members reached 17 last year. Each of us having had her/his own journey to follow, we lately started to feel differences in motivation and expectations we all might have had from the project. As a result, few members decided to leave the club to be able to better pursue their own interests in photography. With few exceptions this means that the LH is returning to the square one when talking about participants. The commitment to beauties of the landscape shared by the team remains strong and unchanged and we will do our best to even improve a visitor's experience on our site. Having said that, let us warmly thank to Emmanuel Coupe, Steven Sieren, Pedro Bento, Tomas Kaspar and Gabi Lach for their valuable contribution to the lightharmony and wish them every success in their photographic paths going forward.
