For our US readers, Happy Thanksgiving. We wish you a great Holiday and we hope you enjoy a lot of turkey and time with your family as well as some good ole US football.
So much is happening at LuLa these days. We’re busy working on a lot of projects and on new interesting articles and reviews as well as videos. Today though we want to share some special news.
As you hopefully are aware Michael Reichmann the founder of Luminous-Landscape started earlier this year the Luminous-Endowment. This is a program to help fund photographers that are working on special photographic endeavors. Today we announce the winners of the first round of grants. We are proud to announce that we have awarded $ 20,000 USD in grants this past week.
Luminous-Endowment Grant Winners
The amount of grant requests were incredible and we hope to see many more in our next round of grant requests. This program would not be possible without donations from our readers as well as some very generous private and corporate donors. Please take a look at our site and consider how you can be part of helping aspiring photographers make their dream projects come true.
A Special Opportunity For Giving And Receiving
We are also announcing a Special Opportunity For Giving and Receiving starting today and running to Christmas Day. To help raise money for the Endowment, to be used to finance future grants, The Luminous Endowment has created a special new and lower donation level of $ 200. The reward that you will receive for this tax-deductible donation is a copy of Michael Reichmann’s new book – A Twenty Year Retrospective. Normally this book requires a $ 350 donation to be received as a reward for your donation. This will be the price again after December, 25th. Please consider donating and helping the Luminous-Endowment.
Michael’s beautiful book would make a great Holiday gift for the photographer in your life or maybe you want to hint to someone special that you would like this as a gift. To learn more on how to Give and Receive – click here.
