- The meeting with the forest to go over issues with our website as not been scheduled yet as they have not responded to Phil’s email.
- Lorraine spoke about her 3 sunset pics. She had learned that the better pictures are after the sun goes behind the horizon and wanted to share her info with the members.
- Phil wants each member to send him one winter picture and our members will critique them at the January 20th meeting which will be a zoom meeting only.
- Brent and Keith White were scheduled to bring treats next month so maybe you can bring them on March 17th as there was only one person signed up. Just let me know if that would work or not.

Some members have asked to see the slides with the information Ken showed us. I had posted a link previously that only had his photos.
January 20, 2022 Zoom Meeting
I want to remind everyone that our next meeting in January will be a Zoom meeting only. No in-person meeting at the forest this time.
Winter Scene pictures
Send me one photo of a winter scene. Anything goes here, as long as it is a winter themed shot. At this time, not much snow on the ground. There is still time before the January 20th meeting. It can be an old photo, you are not limited to having to take a picture from this year. We will present your photos to the club on our Zoom call. Club members will critique. Be prepared to describe your photo and tell us what kind, if any, post processing you did.
More Winter Photo Ideas
This video is about 11.5 minutes. I liked the Scottish accent.
Closing Thoughts
I want to wish you all a Happy New Year. As always I am sure I’ve forgotten something to talk about. Please comment below if you have any thoughts about anything!
Phil
Thanks for finding the video, Phil. It is helpful to understand how changing our perspective while out on a shoot can yield interesting results.
