Mid-June Photo Review |
WorkshopTuesday, June 13, 2023 - 7:00pm to 8:30pm Online Zoom Meeting |
Here’s your opportunity to get friendly feedback on your photos from your fellow club members. Do you just want to learn more about the basics of taking a good photo? Are you having some difficulty getting the “look” you want with lighting and composition? Want to do better in our competitions and juried exhibits? Whatever your level of experience or ability, you’ll find these casual and supportive meetings helpful—and just plain fun! You’ll get the most from these meetings by posting your own photos. But of course you’re welcome to just show up and observe the photos posted by others. If you’d like to show us your photos, upload up to two JPEGs (sized to about 2000 pixels on the longest side) to the current photo review entry on the PhotoContest Pro website (www.photocontestpro.com). The deadline is always midnight before the meeting. (If you need help with uploading, check out the information available on the CCC website under Competition Info, or contact Gerry Bishop via email.) |
Presentation by photographer Betsy Wilson |
WorkshopTuesday, June 20, 2023 - 6:45pm to 8:30pm Online Zoom Meeting |
Betsy Wilson is highly accomplished photographer and popular presenter. To see some of her terrific photos and her range of photographic knowledge, you can visit her website at https://www.letscapturethemoment.com/about/presentations-and-speaking-ap... We've invited Betsy to speak to the Charlottesville Camera Club on the topic of “A Different Point of View." Betsy describes this talk as follows: "Looking to enhance your images with an unusual or interesting new look? Need some ideas to jumpstart a photo slump or spark some new creativity? In this talk, I will show some new twists to spark ideas to make your images look different than the ordinary. A different point of view can be quite literal, such as shooting from up high or down low, or it can mean making use of other tools such as creative depth-of-field or specialty lenses. Or maybe, it is when we, the photographer, look at our subject, or even ourselves, in a different way. Many images and techniques will be shared to enrich any photographer’s portfolio of new and very different ways to add some 'wow' to images." |
