Over time, our images won a magazine cover and became part of several competitions. During the year, we work with a single judge processing camera club digital entries. At the end of each ELCC Club year, Members choose prints and digital images in several categories. In the summer, printed entries are entered in a juried competition at State Fair level.
When selected images receive judge’s critical acclaim, they appear briefly in our Awards Category.
In the past, our website has been an early indication of individual image popularity and critical acclaim. Much of this acclaim comes from Smugmug and its band of happy photographers! To celebrate that acclaim, we share our Awards…
Bisti Badlands was our first image to become Worthy Of Merit. Cover - New Mexico Magazine, January, 2006, with the inscription
“From more than 1000 entrants, we selected Albuquerque entrant Joe Bridwell’s shot of the Bisti Badlands for this month’s cover!”

Restin'...
A soft winter’s dusk is gracious host to a solitary bird, perched against a glowing sky. The tree's graceful arch, from cold, icy water to sweep over faint, distant mountains, focuses your eye to a reed patch near the tree.
The tree, reed patch, and distant mountains create a second image within Restin’. The tree's graceful arch, distant mountain's subtle shape, and shoreline reeds are framed between the sky's soft glow and windblown water. Faintly, perhaps subtly, thin saffron clouds seemed to reflect the far shore line with its golden accent of reeds.
Could our lone tenant not feel a sweet, deep peace in such enchanting light?
