The Digital Photography SIG is a Special Interest Group composed of people who have an interest and love of photography. It is open to all levels of photographers from beginners to professionals. The only requirement is to have a burning desire to improve their photography skills and a willingness to help other SIG members improve theirs. Visitors are always welcome.


July 3, 2008

Our speaker for June, Debbie Pietsch, got our club mixed up with another club and went to the wrong location.  She was very apologetic for missing our meeting and agreed to do a program for us sometime in the future.

Our group that toured the Painted Churches had a great field trip.  We saw four beautiful churches and had opportunities to capture some beautiful images.  Our guide was great and she gave us a lot of history of the community and churches.  We will look forward to seeing some of the images at some of our share and learn shows.

Our program for July will feature Raymond Fosdick. 

Raymond was one of our first speakers when we stared the Photo sig.  Raymond is a very successful professional wedding and portrait photographer who frequently speaks at professional photographers seminars around the country.  This month he will cover some basic photography techniques including posing couples and groups, composition, and low light photo techniques.  Some of you have requested information on these areas, so this program is for you.

Our Share and Learn theme for July is “Eyes”, but as usual, any images you want to share is fine.  Some of you may want to share your Painted Churches images
