are lighted balls on strings (called poi) or hoops or batons or pretty much anything that can be danced with. There will be a group of "spinners" (those people that dance with said objects) at Coolidge park around 8:00 on Saturday 8/20

I'm planning on being there but may not make it. If you do tell the girl named Morgan I said hi.

Another program that is worth looking at is bluemarine. It is an alternative to Light Room. It is also Free.

alternative to photoshop

Fri, 18 Feb 2011 17:23:50 GMT

A very popular and good program to use if you dont want to invest in PS is a program called GIMP. It is opensource and above all it is free. It is very comparable to PS. Learning curve is like any other program, sit and play with it.

PSC Speakers

Fri, 18 Feb 2011 15:28:30 GMT

I do have a suggestion, maybe more a "feel the waters" thing. What if we have a discussion forum on speakers. This would not be a basing forum but a civilized discussion on speakers that we had. What did you learn or not learn!

I think that we have some incredible speakers lined up this year and we already experienced some of them. The problem with having such a line up of great speakers means that when there is a "good" speaker they would seem mediocre comparing to what we experience with the great speakers. The key for me is to listen to all of them and learn what they have done. One can always learn.

Sharing Ideas Via Skype

Mon, 13 Sep 2010 01:40:21 GMT

Hello fellow club members.

Earlier today I asked Dan Jeter to tell me the steps he used to enhance a photograph. Rather than typing and sending the instructions via e-mail, Dan suggested he show me how he did it via Skype. So, at 7:30 Dan Skyped me and we spent what I considered a very beneficial hour of instruction. It was very helpful for me to be able to actually watch as he performed the steps and at the same time allow me to talk, take notes and ask questions.

For those who aren't familiar with Skype, it is a free download which allows you to talk with others and, if desired, be able to view the other person via a webcam, which is necessary to have. Webcams aren't that expensive and can be purchased most anywhere software is sold. On Skype, you can perform

Voice and video calls to anyone else on Skype
Conference calls with three or more people
Instant messaging, file transfer and screen sharing

How great is that? This caused us to wonder if any of you may have an interest in setting up a small Photoshop group to meet via Skype on pre-determined dates/times for the purpose of showing new techniques, asking questions, or simply just to discuss ways in which we could add another strong arm to the club. I think sometimes people feel uncomfortable standing in front of a group to present their ideas but would be more comfortable and willing to participate if done via Skype in the privacy of their own homes.

Being totally selfish, it would keep me active and connected with the members since I live most of the time in Florida and can't attend the meetings, field trips, etc.

Check out free Skype at http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/home and let's open this for discussion. Any interest?

What Would You Do?

Sun, 12 Sep 2010 00:41:07 GMT

I like the attached photo; however, it needs some enhancement. I would like it better if the boats were not so dark. I know there must be steps which would lighten them while at the same time keep the shadows and sunset. Would a gradient work? I'd love to see what the members of this group would do to make this a better photo.
