Hi, all - Our upcoming meeting should be a real winner again. We have Steve Gottlieb, outstanding photographer and founder/operator of Horizon Workshops in Chesapeake City, MD coming to us to speak on what he calls a combination of images, amusing stories, personal history, photo tips, and answers to questions: "On the American Road: Images and Anecdotes." Take a look: www.horizonworkshops.com/index.html. He'll have items from his business, including brochures and books.
With our upcoming Challenge on Black and White Conversion, in addition to the demos we did at the meeting we have a unique opportunity to witness a black/white master printer's work and talk with him. Dick Bond, photography instructor at MD Hall, will conduct a tour for us in the 2d floor Marino Gallery where he has a one-man exhibit in presentation. Dick has made the dozens of woodland prints that are on display using an 1895 Korona 5x7 view camera, which he restored and has on display. The sharpness and tonalities are remarkable.
Following all this, we'll return to the digital world in our Rm 308 for a short talk by Jay Alden on "Photo Documentaries: Creating Entertaining Photo Slide Shows." Jay has considerable experience with this, and will show us one of his, how he does it and alternatives we can use.
I'm surely looking forward to each of these presentations. I think you'll enjoy the evening.
Please don't forget to do some Black and White conversions, even if just for practice. Get pretty good at it and then do some to submit for the Challenge. The submission deadline is April 13. See you there.
