With "The Blue Hour" coming up as our Assigned theme in November, we'll be offering a workshop on how to best capture this natural phenomenon. 

If you're uncertain about making proper camera settings, bring your camera to the workshop for help.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE WILL BE STARTING AT 6:15, rather than at our usual time of 6:30.

PLEASE NOTE CHANGE FROM USUAL START TIME!

Here’s your opportunity to get friendly feedback on your images from your peers. Want some suggestions on how you might improve an image before entering it in a competition? Having some difficulty getting the “look” you want with lighting, composition, or editing? Want to understand more about why a judge may have scored an image as he or she did? Then you’ll find this casual and supportive meeting helpful. And, if you choose to join in evaluating the work of others and contributing your thoughts, you will likely strengthen your own picture-taking skills. Members of all skill levels are welcome, and of course you’re welcome to just attend the meeting and observe.

If you’d like feedback on your images, bring up to three TIFFs or JPEGs ( sized to 1000 to 2000 pixels on the longest side) to the meeting on a thumb drive.
