7:00PM -8:45PM RECORDED Zoom and live at Desert Vista

MEMBERS ATTENDED - (16 at DV and 2 on Zoom) 18 Total

*Norm - Welcome and Introduced Speaker - Marc Wiseman, Topic "Composition".
Marc began "My Journey through Composition".... Photographs of fish & sharks through protective cages in Mexico, adding drama, using low key backgrounds. Mandarin fish and shrimp from Zanzibar. Seahorse was taken at night was gorgeous. Elegance using high key backgrounds and over exposure to make subjects stand out, in Africa. Using strobe lights for night underwater shots....takes luck to get the right angle of the subject. Marc showed many excellent techniques underwater that made the fish really beautiful! Great Program!
