Summer is almost over!

Summer is almost over and it is time for a get-together and get caught up on what's happening in your corner of Alpine County. Or in my case, what is happening under the shade tree ...

Saturday, August 4th, 9 to 11 am. Let's meet in the downstairs meeting room. Bring your questions, discoveries and devices.

Photo Walk - Friday! iPhone & Android

Note the different day! This month we meet on Friday February 2nd from 2 to 4 pm. Meet downstairs at 2 to review camera techniques and settings. Let's go outside for a few shots and then go upstairs to the Music Jam at 3 pm to practice taking pictures of people. (Hint, window backlight challenges our cameras!) At 3:30 we go back downstairs to look at our pictures and open them up in the free Snapseed app from Google to begin editing on iPhone.

This Photo Walk is open to iPhone and Android smartphone users. (Although I do not know anything about Android devices, camera functions and techniques should transfer. The Snapseed app is available for Android devices.)
