Elements of Creative Landscape Composition by Judy Graham
Judy Graham is primarily drawn to photographing dramatic landscapes, often remote and difficult to get to. Initially her interest was in the desert southwest; however, in more recent years she has expanded her travel to include such places as Alaska, Iceland, Greenland, Bolivia, Patagonia, Scotland, and the Canadian Rockies, Norway and Yellowstone, in winter. The cold or bad weather does not get in her way.
Judy’s presentation, “Elements of Creative Landscape Composition”, is about her approach to the art, covering topics such as her gear and accessories, camera settings, time of day for best results, various composition techniques, and challenges in the field. This presentation is sure to provide useful information for novice and intermediate photographers, and advanced photographers will similarly find useful information about how she sees compositions.
Judy has lived in the Washington, D.C. area most of her life. She retired March 1, 2018, after a long career in the field of human resources management for corporate America. Judy has served in various Board positions for Northern Virginia Photographic Society (NVPS), including President for the 2021-2022 club year. Judy joined the Capital Photography Center as an instructor in 2022.
