NOVEMBER 2024
MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD PRESIDENT
Happy Fall to members and welcome back to snowbirds. Also, we’re thrilled to welcome new members who joined in October! Our club is growing, and it’s wonderful to see all the new talent and perspectives.
Our October meeting featured Tom Klare who excited us with examples of shooting in black-and-white. As a result, this month’s THEME OF THE MONTH is “black and white”. Send us a couple of your favorite black and white photos to tpc.contact21@gmail.com so that we can add them to our website Gallery. (Please remember to check this link for information on how to size your photographs for posting.)
We offered an early bird announcement regarding our upcoming club competition. The competition will formally open on November 30, 2024 and the topics will be: Open, Sunrise/Sunset, and Cityscape. Details will follow via email and this website with information on where and how to submit your photos. As always, please remember to check the rules on our website at these links: How to Enter a TPC Projected Images Competition and How to Resize Your Images for Competition Stay tuned.
Our next meeting is November 13 due to Thanksgiving. Mark Batista will be the featured speaker as he talks about “Still Life Photography.” We will also have members telling us about their “Story Behind the Photo” and “Tip of the Month”. By the way, if you’d like to volunteer to do a brief presentation to the Club on either of those topics, please contact me at tpc.contact21@gmail.com. We love it when we can learn from each other and get to know each other through our photographs.
A big "thank you" to Tom Trompeter for telling and showing us his "Story Behind the Photo". His work is featured in the sidebar on this page. And also, thank you to Curtis Roberts for sharing his video of the Veterans Memorial near Trilogy.
I look forward to seeing you at the next meeting and please bring a friend or neighbor who might be interested in our club. Remember: the secret to taking better photos is to TAKE MORE PHOTOS!
Duane Lakin, President
