Treasurer's Report: We
have $977.68 in checking, $41 in cash, and $16 in checks as of the start of
this meeting.
Refreshments Committee (Sue
Stevens): Sue brought refreshments this month (thank you, Sue) and passed
around a sign-up sheet for future meetings. Marina J. agreed to bring
refreshments next month.
Display at Mountain Shadows
(George Kertesz): The Photo Club has the Mt. Shadows display case to promote
the club in March. Club members were asked to bring 8x10 photos to this meeting,
and many did so. Those who still wish to bring 8 x 10 matted photos for the
display, bring them to the Photo Lab. George will be setting up the display on March
1st (Wednesday) at 9 AM. Several members volunteered to come assist.
We decided to limit the photos to 8 x 10 because the consistent size looks
better in a display.
Field Trip (Dianne
Frankenfield): In Dianne's absence, Dennis showed pictures from the Sun Coast
Chinese New Year field trip. About 9 of us met up at the SunCoast, where a
separate area was set aside for us. It
was an excellent opportunity to experiment with flash/no flash, as well as
motion. There is an album of photos from the trip on the blog.
Next month's field trip is
Wildflowers, location tbd. Don Leheup has agreed to coordinate the trip.
Details will be in the blog.
Break and voting on monthly
theme picture -- CRITTERS
We had over 20 pictures of
CRITTERS. The wealth of great pictures resulted in a three-way tie: George
Kertesz, Jake Passer, and Kathy Kirby. Contributors were also asked to allow us
to display their photos in the Photo Lab window.
March Theme: MOTION.
Tech Time (Dennis F.) –
Dennis did a tutorial on adding pictures to the club’s online photo album. This
tutorial, as well as last month's, is on the club's YouTube
channel.
Techniques and Tips: J also
downloaded two YouTube videos which we ran out of time to show. Both are
available on the club's YouTube channel.
