Meeting Notes: February 6, 2006
Evening Program
Harry introduced our special guest and speaker: Wendy van Welie. Wendy’s Indigo Images Photography Studio is in West Granby. Wendy shared her enthusiasm, passion, and love of photography with the club and guests. She emphasized that we are the documenters of history and it is important that we take and print pictures to pass on to the following generations. Wendy’s job is portrait photography but her hobby is in landscape photography, which provides her more of a chance to experiment. Her advice was to shot, shot and then shot some more! She talked about moving to digital equipment and the digital work flow. Please visit her website www.wendyvanwelie.com to view her work and creative philosophy.

Old Business
1. March Program on Weather Photography still needs a presenter. It was decided that we would all think about presenting some information on one topic( such a lightning, sunset/sunrise, rain, snow, fog, etc ). When you decide on a topic please note it on the blog so we do not have all doing the same weather element! If you are not happy with using the blog, email Harry and he can sort it all out!

2. Many thanks to Peter Dinella for a very informative and enjoyable workshop on Adobe Elements 3. We would like to have a follow up after we have had some time to practice.

New Business
1.A Feb. workshop will be decided upon by Harry and Rob. They will let us know what is planned.
