Online Zoom Meeting - Refer to Meeting Announcement

Here’s your opportunity to get friendly feedback on your photos from your fellow club members. Do you just want to learn more about the basics of taking a good photo? Are you having some difficulty getting the “look” you want with lighting and composition? Want to do better in our competitions and juried exhibits? Whatever your level of experience or ability, you’ll find these casual and supportive meetings helpful—and just plain fun!

You’ll get the most from these meetings by posting your own photos. But of course you’re welcome to just show up and observe the photos posted by others.

If you’d like to show us your photos, upload up to two JPEGs (sized to about 2000 pixels on the longest side) to the current photo review entry on the PhotoContest Pro website (www.photocontestpro.com). The deadline is always midnight before the meeting. (If you need help with uploading, check out the information available on the CCC website under Competition Info, or contact Gerry Bishop via email.)

Tony Sweet Presentation on Minimalism

Workshop

Tuesday, February 18, 2025 - 6:45pm to 8:00pm

Online Zoom Meeting - Refer to Meeting Announcement

Tony Sweet is a highly regarded professional photographer and teacher who will be speaking with us about how to create beautiful and emotionally gratifying photos through the use of minimalism--which is the assigned theme for our April competition. Tony and his work have been featured as part of the "Nikon Legend Behind the Lens" series.

Here's what Tony has to say about the topic: "Minimalism in photography is characterized by simplicity, where the aim is to capture subjects with a minimalistic approach, often emphasizing clean lines, uncluttered compositions, and a sense of space or emptiness. It focuses on conveying the essence of the subject by eliminating any unnecessary elements, leading to contemplative and zen-like quietness."

Tony will join us via Zoom, and a link will be sent to all paid-up members of the club shortly beforehand.
