4th Annual Rehoboth Art League Photography Exhibit

“Outside My Comfort Zone” by Danny N. Schweers, 2018

I am gratified that an image of mine — “Outside My Comfort Zone” — was accepted by juror Alida Fish for inclusion in the 4th Annual Regional Photography Exhibit of the Rehoboth Art League.

Rehoboth Art League,
12 Dodds Lane, Rehoboth Beach, DE,
January 4 thru February 7, 2019.

Artists’ Reception:
Friday, Jan. 4, 5-7pm.

This was a competition with over 250 submissions by 83 artists. This documentary image of mine was taken outside Booths Corner Farmers Market in Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania with a tiny French DxO One camera that is no longer in production.

My print for this exhibition has an image area of 18×10 inches and is mounted in a 24×16 frame. I am asking $270 for the framed piece, number 2 of 2 prints this size. (The second one is sharper!)

This image was not a prize winner. Last year my image took 2nd place!

I used this image in my Photo Prayer 2018-14. Seminary student Mariann Younger wrote the prayer to go with this image, and it got several flattering comments. Click here to see her prayer and the comments.

The next morning, on the boardwalk at Rehoboth Beach, nearly all the shops were closed and only a few people were outside.
