THEME FOR SHARE NIGHT: SHADOWS 

Share night produced an assortment of very creative and interesting photos, using the theme "Shadows". A big "thank you" to all those who submitted photos for share night!

Tuesday, April 4th, 2023 - Focus stacking

Our program was "An Introduction to Focus Stacking" presented by Marty DeWitt & Steve Thompson. They gave us insight as to how to incorporate focus stacking into our routine, whether shooting landscapes or macro images, and helped us get the ultimate amount of sharpness that stopping down your lens can't achieve. They showed us the basic process and introduced us to some of the software that's available.

Thank  you Marty and Steve for a great presentation!

March 21, 2023 Share Night

The assignment for the March 21st meeting was to submit 2 images of anything you wish to share plus one image of the assigned theme which was "repetitive patterns". It was fun to see all sorts of repetitive patterns through the eyes of the various photographers! Thank you to all who submitted photos!

 March 7th Meeting: 

Our meeting featured sports photographer Madison Felty. Madison shoots a lot of school and community sporting events, and she shared her tips and tricks for capturing action shots which included the lenses she uses, overcoming challenging lighting situations, and tips for truly capturing the essence of the game. Madison also shared how she got into the business and the challenges of taking her photography to a professional level. We had  plenty of time for questions and answers, and I know everyone came away with a better understanding of sports photography. Thank you again, Madison, for an inspiring, informative and very interesting presentation!

2023 Black Hills Photo Shootout

Steve, Betsy and Craig took turns enlightening us on the amazing time they had and things they had learned at the 2022 Black Hills Photo Shootout. 

Some of the topics each touched on were finding your limits and going beyond them, being able to share knowledge, learning new tips and techniques, applying editing tools such as sky replacement, creating panoramas, lightpainting, shooting models,  and many more!

Jay Grammond, the organizer of the event,  joined us via Zoom to talk about the 2023 Blacks Hills Shootout and all the exciting things they have planned for this year's event!
