ANNOUNCEMENTS

Jim will be talking about an easy to
remember method that affects how you create photos, how you review and filter
photos, and how you do post processing on photos to make good photos great and
great photos excellent.
A little bit about Jim:
In his day job, Jim works in
information technology and security, but photography is a passion and large
part of his life ever since he touched his first SLR some 20 years ago. A
technologist at heart, Jim fell in love with the technology of digital photography
with the first DSLR he touched (a Canon D30) in 2001. The immediate feedback
accelerated his learning curve creating a great creative outlet.
Over the last 14 years, Jim has
shot sports, weddings, corporate portraits, scenery, and documented key events.
A perpetual student, he continually challenges himself to become a better
photographer and enjoys keeping up on the latest photography technology
including camera bodies, lenses, lighting equipment, and post processing tools
and techniques. He has taught photography classes and enjoys introducing new
photographers to the fascinating combination of art, science, and technology
found in the amazing universe that is photography.
In April: Wednesday April 1, 2015 @ 7:00pm We will be having 2 months of photo competition in April. Make sure to make it to see photos from our club members..
In May: Wednesday May 6, 2015 @ 7:00pm We will be having our year end photo competition.
