Pre-symposium field trip Wednesday, May 15 A pre-symposium field trip to Naval Air Station Whidbey Island http://www.cnic.navy.mil/whidbey/index.htm is being offered on Wednesday, May 15. Participants will tour a P-3 Orion unit and the air traffic control tower, and will have lunch on the base. Because of the federal government’s current sequester, this trip is limited to 20 members. The charge for this field trip will be $65 per person. You must be a current ISAP member and attending the symposium in order to participate; arrive at the hotel Tuesday (a few rooms are still available at the discounted rate of $99 plus tax) because departure will be early Wednesday morning. To reserve a seat, type “Pre-symposium trip” in the subject line and email isapboard@aviationphoto.org
Symposium program showcase A popular addition to last year’s symposium program was a showcase of member images. We will do this again for the ISAP-XII Symposium program. The showcase is open to all current ISAP members. Eligible images include any aviation subject, aircraft (in flight, static, military, airlines, balloons), people, airshows, and altered images (HDR, B/W, hand coloring, etc.).
Plans for the field trip during the ISAP XII Symposium in Seattle May 16, 17 and 18—as well as an optional pre-symposium trip—have been announced. For the first time at an ISAP symposium, members who wish to participate in an air-to-air photo flight can do so, on a first-come, first-served basis. See the complete details on the ISAP website. http://aviationphoto.org/isap-xii-2013-symposium-field-trip http://aviationphoto.org/isap-xii-2013-symposium-hotel http://aviationphoto.org/isap-xii-2013-symposium-speakers ISAP-XII Symposium member slideshow ISAP member Paul Bowen and his staff are again putting together the opening slideshow for the symposium.
