Hello All,
Here are my Notes for the SLO Bytes Photo Group Meeting of 09/06/2024
TOPIC: Learn and Share
Ralph Sutter opened the meeting displaying images shot with his
Samsung Galaxy S22. Sutter focused on food that he had prepared and photographed with the Food feature of the Samsung software. He struggled showing photos of his kayaking trip to the San Juan Islands, finally managing to share those images after other members of the group showed their photos.
Alan Raul shot exclusively with the
Sony FE 70-200mm f/4 Macro G OSS II Lens to become more familiar with its strong points and limitations. Most pictures were shot at the Avila Beach third pier with a few in Shell Beach area where it was very foggy. His subjects included squirrels, seals and boats.
Kaye Raul was excited to share recent updates in
Adobe Lightroom that allowed her to erase and manipulate images without having to call up
Adobe Photoshop.
John Waller lamented recent changes to the
YouTube algorithm that misclassified
Photoshop images as music content. He then demonstrated how to quickly remove a complex background with selective use of the
Photoshop eyedropper.
Stanford Brown explored the advanced photo features of his
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra phone with examples that used the features Expert Raw, Food, Panorama, Slow Montion, Hyperlapse, Portrait Video and Director's View.
The topic for
