WHATEVER YOUR SKILLS AND INERESTS THE GROUP HAS SOMETHING FOR YOU.

The group was formed in the summer of 2008 and already has approximately 50 members! There are always likely to be vacancies so please contact the group leader, Larry (details below), if you are interested in joining.

The group meets every other month on the second Monday at 7.45 p.m. The months are November, January, March, May, etc. In due course we hope to meet more frequently and to include meetings and outings for special interest groups. We hold main meetings in the Pastoral Room of St Nicolas Church, Bookham.

At the first meeting we used a questionnaire to find out the most popular topics for members and this resulted in the topics for the next few meetings detailed below. We also discovered that we are likely to be able to form special interest groups in the future – e.g. for particular photographic subjects, image processing, outings, techniques, slide shows, exhibitions of work etc.

Our programme for the next few main meetings is likely to cover the following topics:
• 10 November 2008: “Getting the best out of your camera – you can do more than point and shoot”.
• 12 January 2009: “Putting pictures together”.
• 9 March 2009: “Storing and editing your photos – Picassa 2 as an example of what you can do”.
• 11 May 2009: “How to store and display your photos: printing (home printing and commercial services), making digital albums, making DVDs, etc.”
• 13 July 2009: “Good composition using displays of work taken by members”. We will also review the first year of the group

One of the most important features of the group is that it caters for both novices and the experienced digital photographer, with small self-help groups a feature of most meetings after the main topic and a tea/coffee break. We work on the principle that helping others is also the best way to learn!
