Hello All,
Here are my notes from the SLO Bytes Photo Group meeting of 07/08/18
TOPIC: Edit Free for All
The session opened with
Ralph Sutter calling attention to the Links Page;
http://www.slobytes.org/digital/links.html. He then opened the page, 27 Photos You Won't Believe - Or At Least You Shoudn't ;
https://www.topixoffbeat.com/slideshow/18723There, we saw both final images and the tricks employed to achieve them. This served as an appropriate introduction to today's topic.
Prior to the meeting, members downloaded sample inages from
www.slobytes.org/digital/for-edit and made whatever changes they deemed appropriate.
At the meeting, we compared the results. Some of us applied color correction or cropped the images. Others added objects to them not seen in the originals.
The session prompted a discussion of different editing programs and techniques. Encouraged, we agreed to repeat the format in the near future.
Our next meeting will take place on
Sunday, August 12th at 2:00pm. The topic is
Symbols. Each member is invited to share images of objects that evoke responses that take the viewer beyond the literal.
Ralph Sutter
