PRESIDENT'S  MESSAGE

Once again let me thank all the members who have pitched in this month to help cover all of our events.  By the time you read this there will only be three more events during this holiday season and each one is a special way to give to the club and the community. 

I know some hesitate to volunteer because you don't think your photos will be good enough.  I understand that feeling.  When I first started with the club I was very hesitant to jump in and volunteer for that very reason.  One of the first events I went to was a St. Luke's concert and the results were less than spectacular.  I posted very few photos, but I liked the music.  Getting to go behind the scenes and meet the performers was also a plus.  So I kept going and trying different things.  Fellow club members were always around and willing to give advice as to settings to try, including auto, and other tips.  It took practice and I still delete more photos than I post, but the results are getting better and event photography is one of the things I enjoy most about the club.  So come out and join us, even if it's just for practice or to get out of your photographic "box".  See you soon.

MEETING/FIELD TRIP - MONDAY, DEC.19


WHERE:     CASSELBERRY ART HOUSE
                        127 Quail Pond Cir. Casselberry

WHEN:       MONDAY, DECEMBER 19

TIME:         6 pm - 7:30pm.  RSVP

Given the busy holiday season we are combining our third Monday meeting with our December Field trip.  We will be going to the Sculpture Garden located in Lake Concord Park between the Casselberry Municipal buildings and the Casselberry Art House.  The garden is lighted for the holidays and there is a boardwalk along the West Side of Lake Concord.  We will meet at the Garden at 6:00 pm, take photos until around 7:30 then find someplace to have dinner.

CASSELBERRY ART HOUSE EXHIBIT - JANUARY 2017

Thanks to all who've already committed to the January show.  This is a big event and opportunity for the club and we want to make sure everyone who wants to participate gets an opportunity to do so.  We've decided to extend the deadline to commit until November 27th.  Photos must be nicely framed or canvas wrapped and they can be up to 2' x 3' in size.  You can put in from one to at least five photos and possibly more.  The responses received will determine the final number you can hang.  The photos must be delivered to the Art House on January 3, 2017 but if you'd like, you may drop off your photos and the release form during the Christmas party at Susan's house and we will deliver them for you.

If you are showing photos at the Casselberry Art House and have not received a release form please email the club.  You must fill out the entire form including the titles of the photos, the size, the medium (photography) and the price you will accept for it.  You must also fill out the waivers on the last page of the form and drop it off with your photos.

Zenfolio

Please remember Zenfolio Assistance is only an email away.  If you have any questions or need help with anything on or about Zenfolio please email the club.  We will put you in touch with someone familiar with the program who can walk you through creating personal public and non-public galleries for your personal and event photos, uploading your photos to your galleries, renaming your photos and changing the copyright in Zenfolio.  Once you have your event photos in one of your personal non-public galleries we can help you with how to select photos to copy into the public event gallery.  Please remember you may create as many groups and galleries as you'd like in your group folders but please do not add any groups or galleries to the public event or field trip galleries.
