Half an hour will be an open forum discussing issues at hand.  There will also be half an hour for 10 minute presentations by members. This is always a great evening of sharing and learning. What topics would you like to explore?  Topics are very wide ranging, such as photo book reviews, an aspect of your own photography that you’d like to share, reviews or discussion of gallery shows, photo gear, software, etc.  Or bring a gadget to share.

For March we will include the following:

• The general discussion topic is Photography as Art or Craft.  Please think about it and bring your ideas.
• Picture assignment: bring several of your photos that you consider as “Art” or “Not Art”.
• Dave Powell will talk a bit about assembling and sequencing multiple photos in preparation for the upcoming portfolio review, building a website, or preparing for a show.
• We will continue showing the features of the new Photoshop CC 2018 and Lightroom Classic.  
• The Exposure Triangle
  • In our February meeting Tanya Riseman completed her third leg of the Three Legs of Exposure with Shutter Speed, where motion was blurred or frozen!   She presented ISO in December, and Aperture in January (with a memorable use of spaghetti to illustrate light rays).  These presentations can be found here:
    • (Dec) ISO presentation
    • (Jan) Aperture presentation
    • (Feb) Shutter Speed presentation
  • Tanya will finish her newbie series on the exposure triangle with: “Bringing it all Together, Reciprocity with Cans of Tuna.”  This involves the merits and trade-offs in selecting combinations of  shutter speed, aperture, and ISO settings for achieving proper exposure and artistic effect.

Future topics include: portfolio reviews, compositional strength, HDR, abstract images, or anything else photographic you want to bring to the table. This is an opportunity for you to provide input to the SSCC experience.
