KeymasterIn case you missed the webinar, or had trouble viewing it live, here’s the link to watch the replay! https://www.lenspiration.com/video/webinar85/ You’ll have to pardon the less-than-ideal video quality this time due to something that I think was an issue with the local Verizon towers. But other than that, it was a fantastic webinar. Critiquing photos from 16 different photographers, 4 of which were photographing an assignment for the first time. Learning a bit about my first photography experiences growing up. Thinking about what it’s like to be a photographer of moral integrity. And hearing from the publisher, what she thought about your photos!

KeymasterAnd here are the photos that have a chance of winning!
The ones both Karen and Pam liked have the highest chance of winning.
The ones Karen like have a chance of winning also.
The ones Pam like have the lowest chance of winning, but still have a chance!
Will be sure to announce the winners here when the winners have been chosen! Karen said it would take some time for them to know which ones they would actually be able to use.

KeymasterOh, guys! You guys submitted so many good photos, Karen said she might also want to use some of your photos that have a more “peaceful” feeling. If she chooses any of those, she would send her book, “Growing a Peaceful Heart”! We’ll keep you posted at things continue to unfold.

KeymasterGood news, everyone!! Karen loved ALL the photos so much that she would like to send a reward to every photographer who participated in this assignment!
So, congratulations, @warrior-princess, @esther, @ejvanwyk, @samuelwest, @chris1223, @allieworrall, @blessingscaptured, @laura-aome, @sager7, and @musicgal! (Did I get everyone?!) I’ll be in contact with each of you via email to solidify details in getting your rewards to you!
Beyond that, Karen chose 2 photos as the winners for this assignment, and would like to send a second book to the two photographers who submitted them. Her comments on the two photos were: “Love the joyful enthusiasm” and “Pam [Karen’s co-author] says it makes her heart happy”. So congratulations to Allie and Elijah on having your photos chosen as the official assignment winners!
And lastly, @samuelwest, Karen would like to use one of your photos for her book on peace, and plans to send you a special prize for that!
GREAT job, folks! Will be emailing you all shortly!

KeymasterHi everyone, I just received a notification from Karen. For those of you who won one of her books on Joy, she wanted to let us know that she has not yet received them yet. She said, “They are due to arrive July 3rd. If so, I will send them out. If it is later I will be away and have to mail them at the end of July.”

Participant@jamesstaddon Thanks so much for the update! I was wondering if mine got lost in the mail or something.

KeymasterAn exciting update from Karen!
I am starting to create pins for Pinterest from the photos that will start going up when the book releases. The photographers can comment on the ones they took!
Not sure when her posts about the Joyful book will be going up, but here is her Pinterest account so you can keep an eye on it! https://www.pinterest.com/KarenWhiting/
