Welcome to the cyberspace temporary home of the Island Photography Group (IPG).

The IPG is a group of up to 25 photographers of all levels from Aquidneck Island and surrounding communities in Rhode Island. Currently there are about 25 of us who meet each Thursday morning for breakfast (in cyberspace during the pandemic) and to critique each others photos, exchange tips and news and, in general, enjoy photography. Sometimes we even go out on a photo shoot!

Ray is the moderator for the group.

A conversation in photos

In November, 2020 the IPG started on a project that we could do almost completely as individuals instead of as a group such as a photo walk or exhibit. The project involves receiving an image from another member (without any text or other information) and then sending a different image to the next group member. What was sent forward was somehow related to what was received and each member has to choose what to respond to in the received image, the subject, the colors, the feeling of the image or maybe just change the conversation. This is somewhat similar to the old 'phone message' game.

We split into 3 groups of 5 each to make this more manageable. Each member will receive an image from each of the other 4 members. When the group 'conversation' is completed we will see all the images in each of the 3 groups and probably mount an exhibit someplace. Before that the images will be seen here.

The 3 groups are:
Blue

Gold
