38 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JUNE 2020
Our mission is unchanged — to learn, share and have fun with
photography. But during the "Big Chill Spring 2020" we execute the
mission in a different way.
On April 22, we held an online meeting with Adobe Lightroom and
Photoshop ambassador Matt Kloskowski. Matt went over some basic
Lightroom tools that everyone can use as well as introduce us to his
background texture swap process. I followed his instruction and reworked
an old photo of an egret. The original was on a body of water that had way
too much trash and distractions in the background and Matt's texture
treatment took care of that and helped me make the photo more artsy.
During May and June we are planning on releasing scavenger hunt
clues to encourage our members to take cameras out and explore their
environment for items to photograph.
The images showing this month:
• Steve Edelman provided an image from Organ Pipe Cactus National
Monument in Arizona.
• John Baeyertz submitted a nice moon shot taken with his new Nikon
mirrorless Z50
• ReNae Stueve. Egret with textured background
From all of us in the Four Seasons Photography Club to all of
our wonderful neighbors, we send you a big hug. Smile and say
BREEZZZEEEE, and take those pictures. I'm looking forward to seeing
more porch portraits.
But first and foremost, Stay in Place – Maintain your Space – Cover
your Face. ~ ReNae Stueve, renaestueve@outlook.com
