February Meetings
Thursday February 11th 7pm - Capture NX class
Thursday February 25th 7pm - Photo Critique
This week! Capture NX class: Ken Russell will be teaching photo editing using Capture NX. This will be a great class so don't miss out!
Ken will show different editing skills and demonstrate on YOUR images if you like (and as time permits). If you want Ken to work on one of your images in Capture NX please bring a file to the meeting on Thursday. Nef (RAW) files are best, or tif or jpg.
Note from Ken: jpgs are not the best file to use, but in some instances you can use it. Highlight or blow outs are hard if not impossible to bring back when you are working on a jpg. A Nef file is your best choice, followed by a tif file.
Don't forget we are still collecting dues - $25 individual and $30 family.

December Meeting
Our November 12th meeting was great. If you missed it ... you missed out! We discussed the ideas club officers have proposed for the club and then had our first "new" photo critique. (see the previous post). We did not do our usual "impact scoring" of images - rating each 1st place, 2nd place etc... Instead each photographer was able to discuss why they liked their image, how they took it and get feedback for how to improve it. There was a lot of fun and insightful discussion and I thought it went over very well! We have several educational meetings planned for the new year.
We still need nominations for 2010 officers - President. Vice President . Secretary. Treasurer
If you have nominations email Mike or Christopher before our next meeting. Feel free to nominate yourself :) It's fun to help out and with a strong functioning Board as support it is NOT hard or time consuming to be an officer.
Our next meeting - and last of the year - will be December 10th
This will be our end of the year party and election of officers. Club members and spouses invited, please no children. We'll serve Bajio and deserts - YUM. There will be info sent by email as the date gets closer. RSVP will be needed so keep an eye out in your email for more info.
Happy Thanksgiving and see you all soon!
