WOW Photo Club Outing (Saturday 14) and Preview for March 18 Meeting

Rain might have cancelled out Pickett’s Mill field trip, but it didn’t dampen our spirit.  We had a fun and interesting meeting in the church’s Fellowship Hall in lieu of the field trip.

Our Saturday Meeting:

Waldy demonstrated uploading and navigating our WOW Photo Club Group site on Flickr.  Using Jim’s LCD projector and the churches wireless network we were “live” on our Flickr site.

Jack didn’t waste anytime joining and uploading some of Molly’s photos.

We finished our meeting by talking about the features of our camera and discussing some shooting tips.  Waldy spoke about various settings of the typical camera (light meters and shooting modes).  We we all awed by the unique features of Eliza’s little Canon Elph with it’s selective color mode.

Preview to Wednesday, March 18 meeting:

Meeting will be at 6:30 PM in the Fellowship Hall (below the main sanctuary).  Don’t forget the tasty WOW dinner at 5:54 PM in the Family Life Center (the gym, behind the church).

For our main event, Kim Davidson, will be talking to us about Family Photography. This will be a great program to prepare us for many family events such as Easter and the vacation season. Check out her website: http://www.kdavidsonphotography.com/

For our Members' Show 'n Tell segment let's bring 1 or 2 photos of our families, friends, or pets. By limiting the members to 2 photos it will give everyone time to participate. They can be photographs or digital images on CD or Jump Drives.

See you there!   - Waldy
