For the March Meeting - Mike Gagnon

Here is the Red Photo: JG The Dog in Portsmouth

Here is the Belknap Mill Photo: Looking up the staircase in the Mill

Here is the Dripping Ice Photo: Again at the Belknap Mill

And here is the Open Photo: Olivia Learns that there is another snow storm on the way.

I just downloaded Aperture 3.1.1 and used it for color correction on all of these photos, I guess that that is cheating, but I have been trying to duplicate some of the effects that I have been seeing in photos of late (mostly online and in other photo blogs) and this is one way that I discovered to do that. I would be happy to share how I got some of these effects if anyone is interested.

Donna Lee - Volcano

From Donna Lee:

"last night had minor tremor; as far as I can determine, it was registered in the Puerto Rico region last night about 9 pm, 4.0 on the Richter scale....not from the volcano nearby Orosi but it's clear today, so got a good shot of the Turrialbo volcano this morning...wish I had a better zoom!"

Gilford Clickers -Reminder!!

Hey Gilford Clickers! Don't forget about our field trip/photo excursion to the fabulous Belknap Mill this Saturday, February 11 at 1:00 p.m. Cost for a tour of the inside is $4.00 Thanks Emery for putting this together for us.

Hope you are all working on your assignment for the month. It's a fun one! Four different photo possibilities. You can focus your four photos on just one theme or do one photo of each theme, or any combination in between. The four categories are:

1. Icicle water drip

2. Something red or Valentine's themed

3. Belknap Mill Photo

4. Open Category

Hope you all are bringing your cameras everywhere! I went to Ritz Camera today and got myself a photo print membership. They are having a deal on prepaid photo cards right now. I have never printed photos there, but they have cushioned stools and it's peaceful and quiet. The staff is eager to help too! Can't wait to print photos now!

Anyway, I know I'm not the big president of this awesome club, but I wanted to make an effort to post some information here in between meetings. Let me know if there is anything you want more info about and I can find some articles to post in between meetings. Just leave a comment on this post.
