The theme for the May
meeting of the Viewfinders

the results were both innova-
tive and off the wall.
First place went to Betty
Romero for a picture composed
of a man’s face with woman’s
hands coming out of the top of
his head.
Second place was captured
by Bill Stone, who entered a
photo from his “Red Chair”
series.
Third place was picked up
by Ed Wilent for his photo-
graph of a print of a butterfly
escaping from the print.
This was the last meeting
prior to the summer break. In
September, the Viewfinders
will judge the following
themes: “Back Lit,” “Mirrors”
and “Street Scene.”
