WPS 2023 Fall Exhibits
Northern Westchester Hospital Theme and dates
Theme: What a Wonderful World! Oh Yeah!
From the song Louis Armstrong made famous … “I see trees of green, red roses too. I see them bloom for me and you. And I think to myself what a wonderful world. I see skies of blue and clouds of white. The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night. And I think to myself what a wonderful world.” Ok everyone, let's shoot a lot of wonderful pictures of landscapes, flowers, birds, sunsets, and objects that show the world of beauty from our perspective. Remember, this is meant for people that are going through sickness and healing at the Northern Westchester Hospital with their friends and families.

Theme: I Came, I Saw, I Took the Picture!
The image we took is a memory of something meaningful for us. It could be anything in our travels whether around the block or around the world. It could be an object, a flower, a garden, a landscape, a church, a building, a bird, a fish, a horse, a special event, or more. When the visitor sees our pictures, I want them to say, “Wow, I wish I had taken that photo!”

Theme: Do You See What I See? A Photographer's Perspective
We, as photographers see and record what is impressive to us. Other people may pass by a scene or object and that never makes an impression on them. Now’s our chance to show people how we see a flower, bird, landscape, seascape, or object that will make an impression on the visitors of our exhibit. Note, the photos in this exhibit can be either realistic or semi-abstract (the subject has to be recognizable).
