Florida-based photographer specializes in underwater photography. John Michael graduated from Daytona State College with an A.S. in Photographic Technology and recently graduated from the University of Central Florida with his B.S. in Photography. He turned his passion for SCUBA diving and photography into a productive lifestyle and career.
We had a great time at last Monday's Tech Night learning about different ways to combine technology with our photography. While none of us consider ourselves experts, Paula, Jayne, Frederic and I set up stations covering Lightroom, Instagram, Zenfolio and a few Nik and Topaz plug-ins. Members chose a starting station, explored these areas for a while and then rotated to another area.
Everyone enjoyed the format and wanted more so we will be holding another tech night soon. If there's a subject area you think we should cover or you'd like to demonstrate please let us know. If you participated in tech night, or even if you didn't, try something new and bring the results to our photo review along with your field trip photos.
Going to club meetings, field trips and other photo outings always offers the opportunity to learn something from a fellow photographer. Sometimes it's something totally unexpected and might not even be directly related to photography. I recently joined some friends on a photo outing to the Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse Park. One of them shared the Alexander Technique to efficiently climb the 203 steps to the top. That's a lesson I won't soon forget.

Volunteering is a two-way street; it does much more than just support our club.
