Hello All,
Here are my Notes for the SLO Bytes Photo Group Meeting of 04/12/2026
The photography group members shared their spring-themed photographs featuring gardens, local flora, wildlife, and landscapes while discussing various technical aspects including file formats and exposure techniques.
The meeting involved troubleshooting technical difficulties with DNG files and screen sharing, along with casual conversations about plants, weather, and personal experiences.
The group postponed its next meeting to May 17th due to Mother's Day The topic will be Street Photography for the rescheduled session.
