A reception for the artists (20 dedicated Nocturnes gathered from "the usual suspects") is being held Sunday August 14, from 2 to 4pm (snacks and beverages provided).

	Now for some quick reminders of deadlines and such:
	All the entries are in, and we begin work on our latest online exhibit, "All along the Lee Shore" right after the MINSy show (see above). We hope to have the show up by the week of August 22. Thank you for your patience - all those who submitted work. August 26 is new deadline to register for the Full Moon Night Photography Workshop in San Francisco with Tim Baskerville and Tom Paiva (September 9-10-11). REMINDER: August 31 is the deadline to register for the Death Valley Full Moon Night Photography Workshop with Tim and Tom (October 7-8-9)

Finally, this month's teaser for you to ponder for next month: What great new Gallery space are a group of 20 of The Nocturnes Alumni going to visit in September? And what location will be showing some 85 prints by "the usual suspects' (and then some) in November, to close out this, our Anniversay Year? But wait! . . . there's more - in next month's NightNews! "It was twenty years ago, today . . ." Hope to see you at one or all of these events!
