Zoom Workshop for January
Our first workshop for January is titled “Whats new in Lightroom for 2023”
There have been quite a few changes that has been made in the last few months. I will try and touch on these changes in particular, new masking techniques involving AI for portraits, select subject and backgrounds
along with removing objects from the background involving content aware fill as well as some clever layout changes.
See how these could change the way you edit your images. Enter our Zoom meeting from 6.45pm on this Wednesday 18th January for a 7pm start using the link on our webpage
There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions on any aspect of Lightroom Classic.
If you have any questions on how to Zoom please email me so we can help you attend

Results of Extraordinary Meeting
It was pleasing to see a very good attendance at our Extraordinary Meeting on Wednesday 11th January at Valentine Bowling Club to vote on the motion to wind-up Belmont 16s Photography Club in accordance with the club’s constitution. The motion put to the meeting was to:
- Authorise the club Committee to apply for registration of a new photography club as an incorporated association.
- To transfer the assets of the Belmont 16s Photography Club to the new incorporated club at a date determined by the Committee.
- To cease operation of the Belmont 16s Photography Club at a date determined by the Committee.
The motion was comfortably carried on a vote by members attending in person, via Zoom conference call and email votes received prior to the meeting.
The Committee will keep members advised on progress to establish a new incorporated photography club.
