Ralph Sutter began the image show and tell with a slide show of structures seen on his recent visit to China. They included images from Beijing, Shanghai, Pudong, Hangzhou, Westlake and Yellow Mountain.

Bob Grover followed sharing shots of impressive buildings seen locally and in Mexico City, Yucatan, Machu Picchu and several European cities. These were part of a more ambitious project that Bob is working on. That project will chronicle the many sites that he visited throughout his life.

Alan Raul stayed local. He offered a video tour of the new hotel in Pismo Beach, The Inn at the Pier, showing how he enhanced images via Aurora HDR; a software image editing program. Alan added perspective with a quadcopter flyover of the area.

Monica Tarzier offered images of garden structures seen at her San Luis Obispo back yard.

John Waller brought varied architectural images as seen in Arroyo Grande, San Luis Obispo, Yosemite, Bodie and other California locales

Don Jones visited historical buildings found at the Price Street Park near Pismo Beach.

Connie Sutter also offered images from China, specifically Shanghai, Pudong, Westlake and Hangzhou.

Our final meeting of the year will take place on December 10th.  The topic is Enclosed Spaces.  Members are encouraged to bring images of spaces found within other spaces.
