As part of the Capture Ventura County (CaptureVC) picture campaign that the Ventura County Star is hosting, a picture of Sarah, my daughter, is seen on the front page of the Ventura County Star website. I am very happy as this is a great picture of my daughter and my first real publication.
The Ventura County Star wants to publish a coffee-table art book and has started a photo website called Capture Ventura County. This is a site for all Venturian’s and anyone that has captured pictures of Ventura County. They have eight different chapters (categories) to post your pictures in (People, Nature, Sports & Recreation, Scapes of All Sorts, Everyday Life, News & Events, Pets, and Institutions). I encourage anyone that has taken pictures of Ventura County to submit their pictures. If you do not get into the top of each chapter that is okay and as long as someone voted for your picture, you will get into the DVD.
Shameless plug, please vote for my pictures - http://www.capturevc.com/people/acejr371
The Valley Flyers is putting on a 3 day electronic fun-fly at the Sepulveda Basin in Van Nuys June 6th-8th. This will be a spectacular event that will show off the alternative to gas/glow powered remote control planes. This will also be great photo opportunities as this event is going to be huge in the coming years and this is the 1st of its king on the west coast.

Photowalking.org just announced a photowalking event in Simi Valley on March 15th. For more information, goto Photowalking.org. Here is a little excerpt from the announcement:
“we’re going to head to the western end of Ventura County, in Simi Valley, and shoot in and around Corriganville Park. The Santa Susana Mountains are a unique mountain range that is loaded with beautiful large rolling rock hills. I’ve shot it before, as you can see in the photo.”
Over the next couple of weeks, two tall ships will be in the Ventura County harbors. The Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain are visiting as a promotional event for the Festival of Sail 2008 which is August 7-10.
January 23-31 at the Channel Islands Harbor.
February 1-10 at the Ventura Harbor Village.
The article I received this information is from the Ventura County Star Online.
