Club will raffle off portrait session at LW Discovery Tour
PHOTO ARTS CLUB
The Photo Arts Club is looking forward to participating in a big way at the Leisure World Discovery Tour on Saturday, April 6, from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., in Clubhouse 3, Room 1.
Siegfried (Ziggy) Romano will take complimentary portrait photos. People who visit the exhibit will get a raffle ticket for a grand prize: a private portrait photo session with Romano. The first 60 visitors can pick a greeting card of their choice. The cards were donated by Gil Moore. Member photos will be displayed.
Members should bring matted, unframed photos with their name and phone number on the back on Friday at 4 p.m., when the club will be setting up. People can also bring their photos when they come to visit the exhibit or work the event.
People who would like to help with setup on Friday, greet visitors or rotate display photos on Saturday, or help clean up after the event ends at 2 p.m. should call President Regine Schumacher at 562-430-7978.
At the March 14 meeting of the Photo Arts Club, Ben Benjamins began by sharing that his preference for night photos included some light in the sky, at dusk after the sun has set. He recommended using a tripod if the photographer wants to show movement of light.
On March 28, Romano and President Regine Schumacher will be at the Café in Building 5 at 1:30 p.m. for a one-hour instruction on technical problems and editing. Romano will also teach white balance.
The Photo Arts Club will meet April 11 at 1:30 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 9. People should bring photos of their choice to be displayed and commented on.
The photo assignment is “Farmer’s Market, Fruits, Vegetables.”
People should send their three favorite photos to Romano at siegfried.romano@gmail. com before April 9. Everyone is welcome.
For more information, call Regine Schumacher at 562430-7978.
Les Coombes shares photos of interest with the class.
