IMAGE CAPTION:
This is a Spring time scene at the zoo when the teenage
crews are stationed in a common area with various animals
for the children, as well as adults, to become acquainted
with various zoo inhabitants. While this young girl was
willing to pet the snake named Charlie, there were others
who shied away. And, more often than not, the children were
willing to get very close, but the mothers would not. The
idea that the more familiar you are with Mother Nature’s
creatures the less fear you will have in the future is at
work here.

Nancy Sams
- Biography
I am a retired Art History teacher and
College Dean at a private girl's school and I
have just recently celebrated my 50th wedding
anniversary and have four children and four
grandchildren. I have been involved with Camera
Councils in MN and AZ, plus camera clubs where I
became active with PSA (1987) but didn’t enter
an International Exhibition until the fall of
1990. I keep trying to cut down on time spent
running things but haven’t learned to say no, so
I find myself currently the Exhibitions Chairman
for the Photojournalism Division for PSA and
would love to see Human Interest for the PJ
Division grow into its own as a major
competition. I have competed in 6 PSA Divisions
over the years and was probably on the edge of a
burnout when I found PJ and EID. Here new realms
have opened for me with a new excitement for
competition. My latest and continuing project is
teaching and working with Adobe Photoshop and
then seeing my ‘students’ do well in
photography. Having been in front of a classroom
for so long, I do love to present interesting
programs that I hope are both entertaining and
informative. This study group is a new challenge
where I hope to learn more about Photojournalism
and be challenged to present something that I’m
will be proud of. I do love the challenge of
learning something new. |
