There will be an open discussion on photos taken in Harriman with Greg - PLEASE - Bring in your images from Greg’s field trip to Harriman State Park – Greg is  anxious to see your images and so are we.  And images from Innisfree Gardens. 

 

Theme & Image Critique session:

    Email your theme images to Clif:   chester_historical@mac.com:  jpegs, 2 Mb – 3 images per member please,

Any questions or ideas you want to discuss about your image are welcome.

 

Things to keep in mind when choosing an image

          Composition and exposure

          Clarity - is your image sharp

          Post editing techniques - is your image over exposed or over saturated

          When you are printing your image - is the color management correct?

          Topic - is it interesting - does it tell a story, is it creative or just a fun image.
