Digital Photography

 

 

OCTOBER
Our October meeting was back at the Bendigo Bank to review our photos from the Rippon Lea outing, review homework and to discuss the creative use of Aperture.
 
NOVEMBER
November 28th meeting will be the last for the year and will be our Christmas break-up. Weather permitting, we will meet at Doongalla Homestead Picnic Ground in the Dandenong Ranges. 
Plan B, in the event of inclement weather, will be Kalorama Picnic ground which has covered areas. A decision will be made and communicated a few days before the 28th.
 
DECEMBER
No meeting in December
 
JANUARY
January 23rd will be our first meeting in the new year at the Bendigo Bank and will be our annual planning meeting.  Homework for the Christmas break is “Movement”.
 
CALENDAR
Our annual Probus calendar designed and produced by a sub-committee of the Digital Photography Group, will be available for sale again at the November general meeting. If you haven’t already purchased one, don’t forget to bring along $10 for your copy.
 
If you would like to be part of our photography group and attend any of our meetings or outings, please contact John Ballinger on his mobile
 

Tip of the Day:

Keep a backup of every single one of your photos. Your photos should never be stored on just a single hard drive at a time, because eventually your hard drive will break or be replaced. It’s not a question of if, but when. If you do not have cloud backup, consider using a removable storage medium such as an external drive or memory stick.

Meetings

The group meets the 4th Thursday of every month (except December as it clashes with Christmas) – from 1330-1600hrs.

Our normal meetings are held in the meeting room of the Bendigo Community Bank in Ringwood East.

Activities

As well as regular meetings at the Bendigo Bank venue we often have day trips to specific photographic locations.  Additionally, as opportunities present, we may invite a guest speaker to address the group.

History

We have been active since the inception of the Ringwood Clocktower Probus Club Inc. as one of the first convenor led groups.

The objective of the group is to help members begin the process of getting more out of the Digital Photography revolution though understanding their new Digital cameras and begin the process of developing and expanding group knowledge about photography in general.

We have held photographic exhibitions at a number of our birthday celebrations whilst also producing our annual club calendar
