Hi all

The studio night went well last week. Liliana and Ashleigh were excellent models – experienced and very helpful with their poses. As requested by Colin – please send them some images from the night. It’s not asking a lot to forward a few images. Like me, you may not have downloaded them from your camera yet, but that is going to be one of my tasks for this week. So why not do it whilst everything is fresh in your mind.

This week we have the Set Subject competition for PDIs – Architecture. Good luck to everyone who has entered. We have an early session which I will be leading. I previously asked for ideas and several of you have responded. Time permitting, we will cover –

sRGB profile and how to change it.

Changing image sizes for competition and printing

Adding a border or keyline

Moving items within an image or creating a montage.

I hope to produce handouts on the above.

We may run out of time, but if we can, I would like to show you a very simple (and fast) technique for adding more “pop” to your colour images especially landscapes. It actually involves working in black and white – confused? You shouldn’t be at the end of the session.

Finally, just a reminder that we have the Five a Side interclub competition at Stourbridge this week – Venue The Bonded Warehouse, Time 8-00 PM on Thursday. It would be good to have support for the club. Remember, car sharing may be useful for easier parking.

See you all Tuesday

David
