Photo Arts
At the Oct. 13 Photo Arts Club meeting, Ben Benjamins presented a PowerPoint program covering the use of lighting in photographing people.
Multiple photos that had been sent to Benjamins by members were shown on the screen and discussed. He also discussed the importance of composition and backgrounds.
The next meeting of the Photo Arts Club will be held on Thursday, Nov. 10, at 1:30 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 9. People should bring their iPhone/Android and/or camera. The assignment is to send up to three of your favorite photos, but each should be of a different subject. The photographer should “see” or “imagine” their photo is to be published in a magazine as part of an ad, or as a pictorial of an event. Email the photos to Benjamins at benbenhamins@hotmail.com to be reviewed at the next meeting.
Residents can also bring any photos of their choice to be displayed and to be commented on at the meeting. Individuals with technical or other questions will be paired with someone who can help them for individual discussion after the meeting. For information about the club, call Regine Schumacher at (562) 430-7978. Everyone is welcome.
