July 18, 2011 Meeting Minutes





This was our first meeting at Mike's training facility and it worked out very well.  We had 10 members present - a very good turnout for summertime.



Guest Speaker.  We were delighted to have Nikki Livermore, from Aiken, as our guest speaker.  She covered a range of subjects including photographing action horse shots and smaller animals, various editing options, effective cropping, awareness of reflections when shooting water shots and shadows for other subjects, and shooting from different perspectives such as looking up and looking behind you.  Her work may be viewed on her website - nicolelivermore.com.



Member's Photos.  The subject for this month was Weather.  Several interesting photographs were submitted and discussed.



Special Editing Project.  Mike sent everyone a photograph to be edited by each member.  The results were fascinating and very clever.  We will be doing this again in the future.



Handouts.  Teri provided a handout from the last workshop she attended.  Members were encouraged to do the same and we would share the cost of having them copied.

June 20, 2011 Meeting

Meeting Minutes

Thanks to all who attended.  We had 13 members present, plus a prospective new member, Robbie Hinson.  Robbie is an accomplished photographer and specializes in black and white photography.

Financial Report: To date, 16 members have paid their dues.  Our current balance is $375.50.

Displaying Photographs in the Fine Arts Center.  The photo club sign has been made and will be hung soon.  Members are encouraged to hang their photographs - 2 each, 8x10 - can be matted and framed.



Walk-Abouts.  Due to the extreme heat, there will be no scheduled walk-abouts in July or August.  Members are encouraged to contact each other if they would like to do anything on their own in small groups.



Speakers.  We again talked briefly about inviting professional photographers to speak at our meetings.  Mike has not had much luck with some of the local photographers - he will contact Lonnie Hoke in Lugoff.



Members' Photos.  This month's subject was Macro.  A variety of interesting subjects were presented that included both macro and close-up work.



General Discussion.  There was a lot of interaction between the members discussing individual problems with cameras, printing, different types of lenses, etc.




NEXT MEETING



Next Meeting.  The next meeting will be back at The Garden Gate Gallery, on July 18th, at 7:00pm.



Next Month's Photo Subject.  The subject for July is Weather. Be sure to put your last name, July, and the category - random or weather, in the subject line.  Photos must be in JPEG format.  In addition to the monthly photo assignment, Mike will send everyone a photograph that we will each edit in whatever way we chose.  It should be very interesting to see the different artistic approaches each member applies to the photograph.  After you have finished editing the photograph, send it back to Mike in JPEG format.  Be sure to put your last name and July Edited Photo in the subject line.



Guest Speaker will be professional photographer 

Lonnie Hoke !
