Photo Arts Club will visit Rancho Los Alamitos
At the March 9 Photo Arts Club meeting, Ben Benjamins began with a review of the many photos of the Seal Beach Pier that members sent to him. They were displayed on the large screen TV and members commented.
He stressed the importance of having some part of every photo in sharp focus. He also discussed how having a person in a photo could enhance the design and add interest. It was noticed that very special effects can be seen if you take the photo as the darkness falls, but still has some sky light, and the electric lights are coming on. This feature was seen in several photos. Sue Ann commented at the end of the display of the photos on the excellent quality of photos and how members are all improving from the techniques they are learning.
Regine Schumacher brought a photo of a herd of zebras printed on metal. Members shared a photo of a cat drinking from a sprinkler, a Signal Hill photo and a historic photo album from the Photo Arts Club.
The Photo Arts Club will meet on Thursday, April 13, at 1 p.m. at the Rancho Los Alamitos. Driving instructions were provided at the meeting.
The assignment is to submit photos taken on that field trip at Rancho Los Alamitos by submitting them to Ben Benjamins at benbenjamins@hotmail.com to be shown at the club’s May meeting.
