Annual Exhibit First Time Winners

At the Friday Oct. 24th reception's presentation of awards, we had a singular achievement in the awards categories.
A new CPA member Phillipe Courtay - 1st place Monochrome
A long time CPA member Jack Leavell - 3rd place Color
As they came up to receive their award checks it was noted that this was a first-time award for both members.
We believe the dual occurrence of a new (monochrome winner) and a senior (winner) would provide very interesting perspectives at our only meeting for the month of November.
We expect that both members will share how the winning photos were made and chosen as entries, and some relevant personal photographic history as to camera gear, techniques, etc. that preceded this year's entries.
