Hello All,
Here are my notes from the SLO Bytes Photo Group Meeting of 08/09/2020
TOPIC: Artistic Growth Two; Learn a new skill for use inside or outside the camera and present it to the group. The meeting took place via Zoom
Ralph Sutter showed the Links Page at
https://slobytes.org/digital/links.html He called attention to
https://askleo.com/how_do_pixels_and_dpi_and_resolution_and_picture_size_and_file_size_all_relate_to_each_other/ and
His own slideshow, Kayaking in the San Juan Islands,
https://youtu.be/cgaL6nGPgEs Sutter opened the session by playing his San Juan Kayaking Slide Show
Alan Raul followed showing how he used the Sketch feature in Adobe Photoshop to create drawings from some of his seascapes
Doug DePue first showed how he fused several slides together with his scanning program, Powerslide 3650. He then demonstrated the numerous configurations possible for magnifying displayed image with Microsoft's Magnifier, a feature of Windows 10 built-in
Stanford Brown demoed the audio compression program, Switch by NCH Software, using it to compress audio files without noticeable loss of clarity.
Kaye Raul experimented with low angle photography and adding texture to images by creating semi-transparent layers in Adobe Photoshop
John Waller tried out a 10X adjustable neutral density filter, using it to extend the exposure time when shooting. With the longer exposure time, he then tried light painting and wave flattening.
Bob Styerwalt shared high quality photos of Yosemite that he shot in 1967
