It’s hard to believe we’re halfway through the year 2015. At the end of every year, the New York Underwater Photographic Society has a special meeting where NYC-based underwater image-makers have the chance to share their favorite pictures from that calendar year.

Due to an unfortunate fire at the meeting spot of NYUPS, this unique image-sharing meeting was put on hold. Good news: The fire damage has been fixed and the June meeting invites any photographer to share his/her hottest image from 2014 and 2015. 

All levels of underwater photographers are encouraged to submit up to 10 of their favorite images and attend the meeting on June 30th at Alpha Fusion restaurant in Manhattan. The event kicks off at 7 PM and is free and open to all of those interested! You can send your favorite images to Joe@DivePhotoGuide.com.

More information can be found below or on the NYUPS website. 

What: NYUPS June Meeting (Best of 2014)

When: June 30th, 7PM

PRESS RELEASE

Now that we are half way through 2015 lets remember the good old days back in 2014.  Since we did not have a December meeting lets celebrate last year NOW!

We want to see your favorite underwater images from 2014 and hear how you captured them. Since it’s an image sharing session, other NYUPS-ers will give praise and constructive criticism on how we can all improve our underwater photography moving into 2015 and the future.

Image Specifications

The ideal size of each landscape orientation image is 10” wide and 7.5” high for portrait images. All images should be 150 DPI, or pixels per inch, and .JPG files. If you would like to submit videos, please bring them to the meeting as Quicktime files on a flash drive. Please number your emails or use Dropbox.

In your email, on the subject line please type in caps “NYUPS IMAGES: 2014.” Please email all your images to Larry Cohen at larry@liquidimagesuw.com and CC Joe Tepper at Joe@DivePhotoGuide.com.

Date of Submission

The deadline for images is Sunday, June 28th. You will receive a confirmation of the receipt of your images from Larry. If you don’t, please contact Joe.

Please note that you do not need to submit images to attend the meeting – feel free to just come and enjoy the images, share and learn a little about improving your photography techniques! We want to stress that our meetings are for photographers of all levels. It doesn't matter what camera you use or how long you've been shooting, NYUPS wants to share the joys of underwater imaging with everyone interested.

This month our meeting is back at Alpha Fusion. Our host Henry Yang is a NYUPS supporter and most of his restaurant will be set-aside for us. So join us for a great time having Asian food, drinks and looking at images.
