Diane-
Introduced Robert McCandlish: "The Camera in your pocket" Presentation:
Here
are some highlights: Robert showed sections of the I Phone Class he had taken
and was able to share with us. Beginning with How to HOLD your phone, Stay
Steady, hold phone close to you, support elbows, inhale-hold breath and shoot.
Move camera icon to front your screen - makes it faster to shoot! Clean off
camera lens, use shutter buttons to shoot, use camera on tripod to keep from
moving, good for group shots, Focus - demonstrated several techniques, locking
focus, zooming in to set focus then returning back, never take shot in zoom mode
(will be blurry), setting exposures - tap on screen and swipe up/down for
lighter/darker images. This is only a piece of what was shown tonight - please
check out the recorded meeting on our website. Excellent, educational
demonstration of how to improve each of our cell-phone camera photos!

"Quick
Bytes" by Don Le Heup
Discussed the 3 "C's" - Contrast, Color, Clutter.
These can be used often to enhance your photos. No matter what kind of a program
you have, adjusting the light, or color changes to constrast the subject &
this can make all the difference! Don showed us flower and sheep enhancements
that made each image
better!
Any questions or suggestions? Yes,
