– 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.  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.  

• Presentation: David Blass will present “Arctic Adventure,  Exploring Svalbard Norway”.
• Picture assignment:  Bring in your Nature Photography photos (e.g. you can include the ones you submitted to the October Nature competition for further feedback). If you’d prefer to talk about something else bring in some other photos you’d like to share and discuss.
• Discussion: Any topics that you’d like to explore.
• Book/Gear Reviews:  Andrew Rein will review his new Lumix FZ-1000 mirrorless camera. Dave Powell will review two books on ‘expanding your vision’. 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.
