Workshops when offered, are held on the first Wednesday of each month. Topics: (Click topic for description) What I Did On My Summer Vacation (September) All you need to do is bring some prints or digital images of what you did during your summer vacation and we can talk and mingle and share stories. It's our welcoming to the new season and gives the old and the new members a chance to meet and mingle during a relaxed evening. No judges, no image shows, no pressure. Elementary Post-processing: Photoshop for Beginners (October) A workshop about what might need fixing in your digital images and how to do that with basic editing programs, focusing on Photoshop Elements. Home Studio Lighting (November) This will be an introduction on the use of multiple off camera light sources. It will cover the use of various light sources, light modifiers, and light ratios. The focus will be on light setups and techniques that will allow you to set the mood and detail that you wish to bring out in your subject. Reflection Leftover Night (February) Bring your Reflection themed pictures you didn't enter or didn't win in last week's competition to share with the club. Or, if you prefer, bring some photos you think wouldn't make it at a competition, Reflection theme or not. Feel free to bring prints and/or digital images. The projector will be available for viewing digital images. Competitions are usually held on the third Wednesday of each month and are judged by experienced photographers from Syracuse and Kodak Ambassadors from Rochester. For competition rules, see the competition page. Entries in all competitions can be of any subject, except for competitions in January, March, and June, those competitions have assigned topics as noted. Assigned Topics: Reflections (January 19) - A transformation in which the image direction is reversed -- such as a mirror image but not always recognizable, (e.g. distortion from water movement) but a mirror image of the original image. Framed (March 16) - Looking through or past one object (or objects) to another. An object might be something obvious like a door or a window, or less obvious, e.g. the iconic 007 movie poster of the Bond Girl's legs in the foreground framing 007 in the background from the movie For Your Eyes Only. People at Work (June 1) - People doing a task or undertaking -- an effort directed to produce or accomplish something. People can be one or more person(s). Image shows when scheduled, usually take place on the last Wednesday of the month. October - The Amish In Central New York by Juan Junco January - Anthropomorphisms by Linda O.
