– by David W. Powell

An opportunity to share ideas, images, questions, and inspirations

Half an hour will be an open forum discussing issues at hand.  A half hour is devoted to presentations by members (but this time a breakout session instead).  And a half hour is set aside for member image reviews. 

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.  

• Presentations: 
  • “At Oneness with Light” – Dave Powell will discuss the fundamental relationships of light in photography, and how to modify light to your advantage.
  • “Infrared Photography” – Dennis Freeman will discuss the alternate reality of infrared photography, show examples of what beautiful results to expect, and how to go about getting it for yourself.  
• Picture assignment subjects: Open topic  – bring in any photos that you’d like to share and get feedback on. Bring in prints or laptop/tablet digital images for display on our table in back. We will share, discuss, and critique.
• Discussion: Any topics that you’d like to explore.
• Book/Gear Reviews:  What book/gear/software have you experienced that you’d like to review?

Future topics of A Closer Focus might include: compositional strength, HDR, or anything else photographic you want to bring to the table. This is an opportunity for you to provide input to the SSCC experience.
