"It is a great opening when one looks through the lens — a mighty opportunity for a magical exchange,” writes award-winning writer, photographer, and multimedia artist Jan Phillips. Her popular Spirituality & Practice E-course, "Photography as a Spiritual Path," roused such enthusiastic interest when it was first offered in July 2015 that we decided to establish a special place at SpiritualityandPractice.com where photographers at all levels can explore together the images that restore our hearts and our world. We also wanted to offers others who were not able to take that e-course yet an opportunity to participate in this sharing.

The Contemplative Photographers Practice Group allows you to post your photos, your supportive feedback for others, and your insights into how photography enhances your contemplative path. Each week, the S&P team will provide you with either a photography tip or a quote chosen to inspire your photographic reflections. Occasionally, we will put out a call for photos submissions for projects on the Spirituality & Practice website.

The Practice Group will be largely self-monitoring, with technical support available from S&P. When you join the group now, you will be able to see the weekly prompts and the pictures posted by members of the group since July 2015. Every Sunday, we will send you a short weekly email alerting you to the week's theme and/or activity.

We believe this is a wonderful opportunity for community building at S&P, and to encourage deep and growing relationships among the members of the Practice Group, we will open enrollment to new people only twice a year. This way, participants will have six months to get to know each other and each other's photography in a steady way. We hope and expect that most people will choose to remain in the Practice Group community for years.

The third membership enrollment period will be July – August 2016.
The fourth membership enrollment period will be January - February 2017.

We are charging a one-year membership fee of $52 for this Practice Group. This will actually be the only fee for participation in the group, no matter how long you choose to remain in this supportive circle. Once per year, we will specially ask participants for contributions to help keep the group going. At that time, gifts of any size will be welcome.

We are excited to be able to continue the momentum which Photography as a Spiritual Path generated. (Participation in that e-course, however, is not a prerequisite for being in this Practice Group.) The glowing feedback we received during that month-long course's Practice Circle -- full of curiosity, generosity, challenge, discovery, commitment, caring, confidence-boosting, and illumination -- tells us that a continuing focus on photographs will help us all find the interweaving threads between contemplative practice, community building, and honing our photographic perspective. We look forward to having you join us!
