ZOOM WORKSHOP WED OCT 19TH

The next Zoom workshop is on Wednesday 19th October at 7pm.

TOPIC: Make the most of what you capture

Capturing good images is just the start; you also have to be able to process your images to make the most of each capture. Sometimes the image may need only minor adjustments, other times it might need a lot of work. Knowing where to start and when to stop with your editing is critical, and it is these ideas that Roy Killen will explain and explore in this workshop. 

The workshop will be suitable for members at all levels and it does not matter what software you use or what subjects you like to photograph.

To join the workshop, follow the link on the club website. Login will open at 6.45pm.
