On a beautiful, cool fall weekend, 25 photographers gathered at The Denver Post for The Denver Post Photography Workshop Series. On Saturday, they saw presentations by Denver Post photojournalists Helen Richardson, RJ Sangosti and John Leyba. They also heard about some of the latest technology from Mike’s Camera and Tamron Lenses representatives.
As part of the workshop, each participant was asked to go out into the city and make images that speak to what kind of photographer they want to be, incorporating some of the things they had learned from Denver Post photographers. What they brought back included a touching photograph of a woman praying, beautiful night scenes around the city and awe inspiring pictorials of some of the beautiful places that surround us.
From the 25 photographs, awards were presented for the best work. First place was awarded to Kathryn Sutton for a touching image of her mother praying in her home. Second place went to Doug McPeek for his photograph of a band playing in a nightclub. Chris Steuri received third place for his dramatic night image of the Articulated Wall sculpture in Denver.
The Denver Post will be developing additional photography workshops. Check out The Denver Post Photo Facebook page for updates.
